Estado: ModificadaMedia (5.5)—
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fprobe: Release rethook after the ftrace_ops is unregistered
While running bpf selftests it's possible to get following fault:
In unregister_fprobe function we can't release fp->rethook while it's possible there are some of its users still running on another cpu.
Moving rethook_free call after fp->ops is unregistered with unregister_ftrace_function call.
