Code Review — PR #310

Recommendation: MERGE (with note)

Summary

This PR (from OrbisAI Security) fixes V-002: a use-after-free risk in display_task.c where buf1/buf2 are freed but not set to NULL in the error path. The fix adds = NULL after each free().

Security Assessment

• Fix is correct: Setting freed pointers to NULL prevents use-after-free if the function is re-entered or execution continues past the error path.
• Scope is minimal: 8 lines added, 2 removed — single file, single function. Low regression risk.
• No new attack surface introduced.

Conflict Assessment (ADR-069 through ADR-078)

• No conflicts. Our recent ADR-069 work (a4bd2308b) touched edge_processing.c and csi_collector.c, not display_task.c. The LVGL buffer allocation code has not changed since the original implementation.

Minor Notes

• The function still returns ESP_OK after a failed allocation (line unchanged). This is pre-existing behavior — the display is optional and failure is non-fatal. Not a blocker for this PR, but worth a follow-up to return ESP_ERR_NO_MEM instead.

Verdict: Clean security fix. Safe to merge.
