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

net: phonet: do not BUG_ON() in pn_socket_autobind() on failed bind

syzbot reported a kernel BUG triggered from pn_socket_sendmsg() via
pn_socket_autobind():

  kernel BUG at net/phonet/socket.c:213!
  RIP: 0010:pn_socket_autobind net/phonet/socket.c:213 [inline]
  RIP: 0010:pn_socket_sendmsg+0x240/0x250 net/phonet/socket.c:421
  Call Trace:
   sock_sendmsg_nosec+0x112/0x150 net/socket.c:797
   __sock_sendmsg net/socket.c:812 [inline]
   __sys_sendto+0x402/0x590 net/socket.c:2280
   ...

pn_socket_autobind() calls pn_socket_bind() with port 0 and, on
-EINVAL, assumes the socket was already bound and asserts that the
port is non-zero:

  err = pn_socket_bind(sock, ..., sizeof(struct sockaddr_pn));
  if (err != -EINVAL)
          return err;
  BUG_ON(!pn_port(pn_sk(sock->sk)->sobject));
  return 0; /* socket was already bound */

However pn_socket_bind() also returns -EINVAL when sk->sk_state is not
TCP_CLOSE, even when the socket has never been bound and pn_port() is
still 0.  In that case the BUG_ON() fires and panics the kernel from a
user-triggerable path.

Treat the "bind returned -EINVAL but pn_port() is still 0" case as a
regular error and propagate -EINVAL to the caller instead of crashing.
Existing callers already translate a non-zero return from
pn_socket_autobind() into -ENOBUFS/-EAGAIN, so returning -EINVAL here
only changes behaviour from panic to a normal errno.
