If the core_pattern is set to "|" and any process segfaults then we get a null pointer derefernce while trying to coredump. The call stack shows: RIP: do_coredump+0x628/0x11c0 When the core_pattern has only "|" there is no use of trying the coredump and we can check that while formating the corename and exit with an error. After this change I get: format_corename failed Aborting core Fixes: 315c6926 ("coredump: split pipe command whitespace before expanding template") Reported-by: Matthew Ruffell <matthew.ruffell@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Sudip Mukherjee <sudipm.mukherjee@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Paul Wise <pabs3@bonedaddy.net> Cc: Alexander Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200416194612.21418-1-sudipm.mukherjee@gmail.comSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
