[ Upstream commit 912964eacb111551db73429719eb5fadcab0ff8a ]
Commit 6f29a1306131 ("sctp: sctp_addr_id2transport should verify the
addr before looking up assoc") invoked sctp_verify_addr to verify the
addr.
But it didn't check af variable beforehand, once users pass an address
with family = 0 through sockopt, sctp_get_af_specific will return NULL
and NULL pointer dereference will be caused by af->sockaddr_len.
This patch is to fix it by returning NULL if af variable is NULL.
