Sorry for the misunderstanding before. The patch set is good to me.

> Subject: [PATCH v3 00/11] Test against invalid pointers in acpiview
> 
> Prevent the use of invalid pointers when parsing ACPI tables in the UEFI shell
> acpiview tool.
> 
> The parsing of ACPI tables is often controlled with the values read earlier 
> from
> the same table. For example, the 'Offset' or 'Count' fields found in a 
> structure
> are later used to parse the substructures. If such fields lie outside the 
> structure's
> buffer length provided, then there is a possibility for a wild or dangling 
> pointer.
> 
> Currently, if the ParseAcpi() function terminates early because the end of the
> input table data buffer has been reached, then the pointers which were
> supposed to be updated by this function are left untouched.
> This is a security issue as the values pointed to by these pointers are later 
> used
> for flow control.
> 
> This patch series aims to solve this security issue by explicitly 
> initializing any
> pointers lying outside the input ACPI data buffer to NULL and testing for NULL
> whenever these pointers are dereferenced.
