CVE-2021-47607

CVE-2021-47607 is a Linux kernel issue where BPF_CMPXCHG could leak kernel addresses due to the verifier not rejecting unprivileged programs that place a pointer in R0. The high-level POC probes kernel addresses by using the map value pointer as R0 while SRC_REG has a canary, enabling address lea...

CVE-2024-38566

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Fix verifier assumptions about socket-sk The verifier assumes that 'sk' field in 'struct socket' is valid and non-NULL when 'socket' pointer itself is trusted and non-NULL. That may not be the case when socket was just creat...
