In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf/x86/amd/brs: Fix kernel address leakage
A user-only branch stack can contain branches that originate from the kernel. As a result, kernel addresses are exposed to user space even when PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_USER is requested. On AMD processors supporting X86_FEATURE_BRS (Zen 3 only), perf can still report entries such as SYSRET/interrupt returns for which the branch-from addresses are in the kernel.
E.g.
$ perf record -j any,u -c 4000 -e branch-brs -o - --
perf bench syscall basic --loop 1000 |
perf script -i - -F brstack|tr ' ' '\n'|
grep -E '0x[89a-f][0-9a-f]{15}'

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A local user can exploit a vulnerability in the `perf` subsystem on AMD processors utilizing the Branch Sampling (BRS) feature. This flaw occurs because the software filtering mechanism for branch records only validates the branch-to address, leaving the branch-from address unchecked. This oversight allows kernel addresses to be exposed to user space, leading to information disclosure.
