Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
A use-after-free issue exists in the
unregister fprobe() function. This occurs because the function fails to wait for the Read-Copy-Update (RCU) grace period—a synchronization mechanism that ensures all current readers have finished accessing data before it is deleted—after unregistering a struct fprobe from an rcu-hlist. This flaw can be triggered during fprobe events and within sample module code.Recommendations
Update the Linux kernel to a version that includes the fix adding
synchronize rcu() to the unregister fprobe() function. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
