Vulnerability of the `scalar32_min_max_or` function in the Linux operating system’s kernel/bpf/verifier.c file, which allows a hacker to trigger a service failure

The vulnerability of the scalar32minmaxor function in the Linux kernel’s bpf/verifier.c file is related to operations that go beyond the buffer boundaries in memory. Exploiting this vulnerability could allow an attacker to trigger a system failure...

USN-4626-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

Simon Scannell discovered that the bpf verifier in the Linux kernel did not properly calculate register bounds for certain operations. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information kernel memory or gain administrative privileges. CVE-2020-27194 Moritz Lipp, Michael Schwarz,...

kernel: bpf: Fix KASAN use-after-free Read in compute_effective_progs

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Fix KASAN use-after-free Read in computeeffectiveprogs Syzbot found a Use After Free bug in computeeffectiveprogs. The reproducer creates a number of BPF links, and causes a fault injected alloc to fail, while calling...

kernel: bpf: reject unhashed sockets in bpf_sk_assign

A reference counting flaw was found in the Linux kernel's BPF socket assignment helper when handling unhashed UDP sockets. When a BPF program assigns an unhashed UDP socket to a packet, the function increments the socket reference count assuming SOCKRCUFREE isn't set. However, subsequent bind or...
