In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: Check the bearer type before calling tipc_udp_nl_bearer_add()
syzbot reported the following general protection fault [1]:
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000010: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000080-0x0000000000000087] ...

The cause of this issue is that when tipc_nl_bearer_add() is called with the TIPC_NLA_BEARER_UDP_OPTS attribute, tipc_udp_nl_bearer_add() is called even if the bearer is not UDP.
tipc_udp_is_known_peer() called by tipc_udp_nl_bearer_add() assumes that the media_ptr field of the tipc_bearer has an udp_bearer type object, so the function goes crazy for non-UDP bearers.
This patch fixes the issue by checking the bearer type before calling tipc_udp_nl_bearer_add() in tipc_nl_bearer_add().
