Subject: CVE-2022-48977: can: af_can: fix NULL pointer dereference in can_rcv_filter

Description
===========

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

can: af_can: fix NULL pointer dereference in can_rcv_filter

Analogue to commit 8aa59e355949 ("can: af_can: fix NULL pointer
dereference in can_rx_register()") we need to check for a missing
initialization of ml_priv in the receive path of CAN frames.

Since commit 4e096a18867a ("net: introduce CAN specific pointer in the
struct net_device") the check for dev->type to be ARPHRD_CAN is not
sufficient anymore since bonding or tun netdevices claim to be CAN
devices but do not initialize ml_priv accordingly.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2022-48977 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
