CVE-2022-49030

Estado: ModificadaAlta (7.8)—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

libbpf: Handle size overflow for ringbuf mmap

The maximum size of ringbuf is 2GB on x86-64 host, so 2 * max_entries will overflow u32 when mapping producer page and data pages. Only casting max_entries to size_t is not enough, because for 32-bits application on 64-bits kernel the size of read-only mmap region also could overflow size_t.

So fixing it by casting the size of read-only mmap region into a __u64 and checking whether or not there will be overflow during mmap.
