** Description changed:

- Fixed By:
+ The raw_release function in net/can/raw.c in the Linux kernel before
+ 2.6.39-rc6 does not properly validate a socket data structure, which
+ allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer
+ dereference) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted
+ release operation.

-     can: add missing socket check in can/raw release
-     
-     v2: added space after 'if' according code style.
-     
-     We can get here with a NULL socket argument passed from userspace,
-     so we need to handle it accordingly.
-     
-     Thanks to Dave Jones pointing at this issue in net/can/bcm.c
