Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

tipc: fix NULL deref in cleanup_bearer()

syzbot found [1] that after blamed commit, ub->ubsock->sk was NULL when attempting the atomic_dec() :

atomic_dec(&tipc_net(sock_net(ub->ubsock->sk))->wq_count);

Fix this by caching the tipc_net pointer.
