"The version of kernel installed on the remote Azure Linux 3.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore,
affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2024-45020 advisory.
- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Fix a kernel verifier crash in
stacksafe() Daniel Hodges reported a kernel verifier crash when playing with sched-ext. Further
investigation shows that the crash is due to invalid memory access in stacksafe(). More specifically, it
is the following code: if (exact != NOT_EXACT && old->stack[spi].slot_type[i % BPF_REG_SIZE] !=
cur->stack[spi].slot_type[i % BPF_REG_SIZE]) return false; The 'i' iterates old->allocated_stack. If
cur->allocated_stack < old->allocated_stack the out-of-bound access will happen. To fix the issue add 'i
>= cur->allocated_stack' check such that if the condition is true, stacksafe() should fail. Otherwise,
cur->stack[spi].slot_type[i % BPF_REG_SIZE] memory access is legal. (CVE-2024-45020)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
