5.0-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().
