      <title>CVE-2026-98626 — bpf: Restrict CO-RE poisoning to relocatable instructions</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2026-98626</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;bpf: Restrict CO-RE poisoning to relocatable instructions&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;CO-RE relocation records can name any instruction offset. When a
relocation cannot be resolved, bpf_core_patch_insn() currently poisons its
target before checking whether that instruction is a valid relocation
target. Malformed metadata can therefore replace jumps, calls, exits,
register-source arithmetic, or non-immediate loads instead of failing at
the relocation step.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Handle poisoning only after the instruction has passed the same class and
operand-form checks used for a resolved relocation. Route invalid forms
through the existing diagnostic and return a hard error. Keep poisoning
supported instructions, including both halves of a plain ldimm64, so an
unresolved relocation in dead code remains valid.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Extend bpf_core_poison_insn() to poison both halves of ldimm64, and return
its status directly from each validated instruction case. This avoids
routing the success path through a common label and leaves the helper free
to report errors.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The shared relocation code applies this restriction to both libbpf and
in-kernel CO-RE.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
