[PATCH bpf-next v2] libbpf: Prevent null-pointer dereference when prog to load has no BTF

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Quentin Monnet <qmo@xxxxxxxxxx>

In bpf_objec_load_prog(), there's no guarantee that obj->btf is non-NULL
when passing it to btf__fd(), and this function does not perform any
check before dereferencing its argument (as bpf_object__btf_fd() used to
do). As a consequence, we get segmentation fault errors in bpftool (for
example) when trying to load programs that come without BTF information.

v2: Keep btf__fd() in the fix instead of reverting to bpf_object__btf_fd().

Fixes: df7c3f7d3a3d ("libbpf: make uniform use of btf__fd() accessor inside libbpf")
