[PATCH 4.14 19/41] Bluetooth: hci_uart: Check if socket buffer is ERR_PTR in h4_recv_buf()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Mar 26 2019 - 02:34:02 EST


4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Myungho Jung <mhjungk@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 1dc2d785156cbdc80806c32e8d2c7c735d0b4721 upstream.

h4_recv_buf() callers store the return value to socket buffer and
recursively pass the buffer to h4_recv_buf() without protection. So,
ERR_PTR returned from h4_recv_buf() can be dereferenced, if called again
before setting the socket buffer to NULL from previous error. Check if
skb is ERR_PTR in h4_recv_buf().
