In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix crash due to incorrect copy_map_value
When both bpf_spin_lock and bpf_timer are present in a BPF map value,
copy_map_value needs to skirt both objects when copying a value into and
out of the map. However, the current code does not set both s_off and
t_off in copy_map_value, which leads to a crash when e.g. bpf_spin_lock
is placed in map value with bpf_timer, as bpf_map_update_elem call will
be able to overwrite the other timer object.
When the issue is not fixed, an overwriting can produce the following
splat:
