CVE-2024-43890

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue is related to an overflow in the get free elt() function, specifically with tracing map->next elt, which can lead to an infinite loop and a CPU hang problem when trying to insert an element into a full tracing map using tracing map insert(). This occurs because once tracing map->next elt overflows, new elements can still be inserted into the tracing map, even though the maximum number of elements (max elts) has been reached.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
