In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Mark sched_process_wait argument as nullable
do_wait() passes wo->wo_pid to the sched_process_wait tracepoint.
kernel_wait4() leaves wo_pid NULL for wait4(-1), and
kernel_waitid_prepare() does likewise for waitid(P_ALL).
btf_ctx_access() currently types argument 0 as PTR_TO_BTF_ID |
PTR_TRUSTED. Without PTR_MAYBE_NULL, the verifier accepts an unchecked
dereference. Trusted pointer loads have no fault protection, so a wait for
any child can then cause a NULL pointer dereference in JITed BPF code.
Add sched_process_wait to raw_tp_null_args[] with argument 0 marked
nullable. The verifier rejects an unchecked dereference while preserving
access after the program checks the pointer for NULL.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's BPF (Berkeley Packet Filter) subsystem. This issue allows a local attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) through a system crash. The vulnerability occurs because the BPF verifier fails to recognize that process-wait tracepoint arguments can be null, permitting unchecked pointer dereferences. A local user can trigger this condition by issuing wait system calls that pass null process identifiers, resulting in a kernel null pointer dereference.
