NULL Pointer Dereference

Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
Bluetooth: ISO: drop ISO_END frames received without prior ISO_START<br />
<br />
ISO data PDUs carry a packet-boundary flag indicating START, CONT, END<br />
or SINGLE. The ISO_CONT branch of iso_recv() guards against a missing<br />
ISO_START by checking conn->rx_len before touching conn->rx_skb, but<br />
ISO_END does not.<br />
<br />
If a peer sends an ISO_END as the first packet on a fresh ISO<br />
connection, conn->rx_skb is still NULL and conn->rx_len is zero, so<br />
skb_put(conn->rx_skb, ...) dereferences NULL and oopses. For BIS,<br />
where receivers sync to a broadcaster without pairing, any broadcaster<br />
on the air can trigger this.<br />
<br />
Mirror the ISO_CONT check at the top of ISO_END so a stray end fragment<br />
is logged and dropped instead of crashing the host.
