In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ARM:
9064/1: hw_breakpoint: Do not directly check the event’s overflow_handler
hook The commit 1879445dfa7b (“perf/core: Set event’s default
::overflow_handler()”) set a default event->overflow_handler in
perf_event_alloc(), and replace the check event->overflow_handler with
is_default_overflow_handler(), but one is missing. Currently, the
bp->overflow_handler can not be NULL. As a result, enable_single_step() is
always not invoked. Comments from Zhen Lei:
