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

udf: Fix NULL pointer dereference in udf_symlink function

In function udfsymlink, epos.bh is assigned with the value returned by udftgetblk. The function udftgetblk is defined in udf/misc.c and returns the value of sbgetblk function that could be NULL. Then, epos.bh is used without any check, causing a possible NULL pointer dereference when sb_getblk fails.

This fix adds a check to validate the value of epos.bh.
