[PATCH net-next] net: sock: fix access via invalid file descriptor

From: Alexei Starovoitov
Date: Wed Dec 10 2014 - 23:15:12 EST


0day robot reported the following crash:
[ 21.233581] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000007
[ 21.234709] IP: [<ffffffff8156ebda>] sk_attach_bpf+0x39/0xc2

It's due to bpf_prog_get() returning ERR_PTR.
Check it properly.

Reported-by: Fengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@xxxxxxxxx>
Fixes: 89aa075832b0 ("net: sock: allow eBPF programs to be attached to sockets")

Silly mistake. I was sure I've checked this error path. Apparently not :(
