In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:udplite: Fix null-ptr-deref in __udp_enqueue_schedule_skb().syzbot reported null-ptr-deref of udp_sk(sk)->udp_prod_queue. [0]Since the cited commit, udp_lib_init_sock() can fail, as can
udp_init_sock() and udpv6_init_sock().Let's handle the error in udplite_sk_init() and udplitev6_sk_init().[0]:
