selinux_getselfattr() doesn't properly initialize the string pointer
it passes to selinux_lsm_getattr() which can cause a problem when an
attribute hasn't been explicitly set; selinux_lsm_getattr() returns
0/success, but does not set or initialize the string label/attribute.
Failure to properly initialize the string causes problems later in
selinux_getselfattr() when the function attempts to kfree() the
string.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
