What is the problem

A vulnerability (unclassified) exists in Linux kernel.

Affected scope

Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of Linux kernel.

Severity

Severity: High (CVSS 7.8/10). Successful exploitation can lead to full system takeover.

How to fix

Update to the patched release per vendor advisory.

Workaround

Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.

Detection

Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual request patterns matching this CVE's known IOCs. Audit SBOM/dependencies to find affected services.

Original description The description as published by the source.

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

bpf: check changes_pkt_data property for extension programs

When processing calls to global sub-programs, verifier decides whether
to invalidate all packet pointers in current state depending on the
changes_pkt_data property of the global sub-program.

Because of this, an extension program replacing a global sub-program
must be compatible with changes_pkt_data property of the sub-program
being replaced.

This commit:

  • adds changes_pkt_data flag to struct bpf_prog_aux:

    • this flag is set in check_cfg() for main sub-program;
    • in jit_subprogs() for other sub-programs;
  • modifies bpf_check_attach_btf_id() to check changes_pkt_data flag;

  • moves call to check_attach_btf_id() after the call to check_cfg(),
    because it needs changes_pkt_data flag to be set:

    bpf_check:
    ... ...

    • check_attach_btf_id resolve_pseudo_ldimm64
      resolve_pseudo_ldimm64 --> bpf_prog_is_offloaded
      bpf_prog_is_offloaded check_cfg
      check_cfg + check_attach_btf_id
      ... ...

The following fields are set by check_attach_btf_id():

  • env->ops
  • prog->aux->attach_btf_trace
  • prog->aux->attach_func_name
  • prog->aux->attach_func_proto
  • prog->aux->dst_trampoline
  • prog->aux->mod
  • prog->aux->saved_dst_attach_type
  • prog->aux->saved_dst_prog_type
  • prog->expected_attach_type

Neither of these fields are used b…
