Overview
About vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix potential array overflow in bpf_trampoline_get_progs()
The cnt value in the ‘cnt >= BPF_MAX_TRAMP_PROGS’ check does not include BPF_TRAMP_MODIFY_RETURN bpf programs, so the number of the attached BPF_TRAMP_MODIFY_RETURN bpf programs in a trampoline can exceed BPF_MAX_TRAMP_PROGS.
When this happens, the assignment ‘*progs++ = aux->prog’ in bpf_trampoline_get_progs() will cause progs array overflow as the progs field in the bpf_tramp_progs struct can only hold at most BPF_MAX_TRAMP_PROGS bpf programs.
