This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled bpf: correctly handle malformed BPF_CORE_TYPE_ID_LOCAL relos to the 6.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: bpf-correctly-handle-malformed-bpf_core_type_id_loca.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit b7fbfd08785e640d053c77fdf7864051d926cd97 Author: Eduard Zingerman <eddyz87@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Aug 22 01:01:23 2024 -0700 bpf: correctly handle malformed BPF_CORE_TYPE_ID_LOCAL relos [ Upstream commit 3d2786d65aaa954ebd3fcc033ada433e10da21c4 ] In case of malformed relocation record of kind BPF_CORE_TYPE_ID_LOCAL referencing a non-existing BTF type, function bpf_core_calc_relo_insn would cause a null pointer deference. Fix this by adding a proper check upper in call stack, as malformed relocation records could be passed from user space. Simplest reproducer is a program: r0 = 0 exit With a single relocation record: .insn_off = 0, /* patch first instruction */ .type_id = 100500, /* this type id does not exist */ .access_str_off = 6, /* offset of string "0" */ .kind = BPF_CORE_TYPE_ID_LOCAL, See the link for original reproducer or next commit for a test case.
