Severity
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix panic due to wrong pageattr of im->image
In the scenario where livepatch and kretfunc coexist, the pageattr of
im->image is rox after arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline in
bpf_trampoline_update, and then modify_fentry or register_fentry returns
-EAGAIN from bpf_tramp_ftrace_ops_func, the BPF_TRAMP_F_ORIG_STACK flag
will be configured, and arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline will be re-executed.
At this time, because the pageattr of im->image is rox,
arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline will read and write im->image, which causes
a fault. as follows:
insmod livepatch-sample.ko # samples/livepatch/livepatch-sample.c
bpftrace -e 'kretfunc:cmdline_proc_show {}'
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffa0206000
