Описание

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Restrict CO-RE poisoning to relocatable instructions CO-RE relocation records can name any instruction offset. When a relocation cannot be resolved, bpf_core_patch_insn() currently poisons its target before checking whether that instruction is a valid relocation target. Malformed metadata can therefore replace jumps, calls, exits, register-source arithmetic, or non-immediate loads instead of failing at the relocation step. Handle poisoning only after the instruction has passed the same class and operand-form checks used for a resolved relocation. Route invalid forms through the existing diagnostic and return a hard error. Keep poisoning supported instructions, including both halves of a plain ldimm64, so an unresolved relocation in dead code remains valid. Extend bpf_core_poison_insn() to poison both halves of ldimm64, and return its status directly from each validated instruction case. This avoids routing the success path through a common label and leaves the helper free to report errors. The shared relocation code applies this restriction to both libbpf and in-kernel CO-RE.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF) subsystem. When processing Compile Once – Run Everywhere (CO-RE) relocation records, the kernel modifies target instructions before verifying that the instruction is an eligible relocation target. A local user can exploit this vulnerability by submitting a BPF program with malformed relocation metadata, causing unintended instructions to be overwritten. This flaw can result in unexpected program behavior or a Denial of Service (DoS) through a system crash.
