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

tipc: Check the bearer type before calling tipc_udp_nl_bearer_add()

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().

Este parche soluciona el problema al verificar el tipo de portador antes de llamar a tipc_udp_nl_bearer_add() en tipc_nl_bearer_add().
