+Subject: [PATCH 1/2] libnet_if_addr.c: fix 'Using uninitialized value "rc".'
+
+This fixes static code analysis report:
+
+  1. libnet-1.3/src/libnet_if_addr.c:551:5: var_decl: Declaring variable "rc" without initializer.
+  8. libnet-1.3/src/libnet_if_addr.c:626:5: uninit_use: Using uninitialized value "rc".
+  #   624|       }
+  #   625|
+  #   626|->     return rc;
+  #   627|   }
+  #   628|
+
+The code was jumping to the 'end' label without setting rc to anything.
+Doing 'return rc' will indeed return an uninitialized value for some
+cases.
+
+This commit removed the 'bad' label and in an error case always jumps to
+'end' with rc initialized to -1.

+Subject: [PATCH 2/2] libnet_build_udld.c: fix 'Using uninitialized value "p"
+ when calling "libnet_pblock_delete"'
+
+Static code analysis reported:
+
+  1. libnet-1.3/src/libnet_build_udld.c:11:5: var_decl: Declaring variable "p" without initializer.
+  4. libnet-1.3/src/libnet_build_udld.c:119:5: uninit_use_in_call: Using uninitialized value "p" when calling "libnet_pblock_delete".
+  #   117|       return libnet_pblock_update(l, p, h, pblock_type);
+  #   118|     bad:
+  #   119|->     libnet_pblock_delete(l, p);
+  #   120|       return (-1);
+  #   121|   }
+
+The function libnet_pblock_delete() checks if p is not NULL, but it is
+called before 'p' is uninitialized and it might point to some random
+location. Setting it to NULL will skip running libnet_pblock_delete()
+cleanup code on a random memory address.
