CVE-2022-49797

Estado: AnalizadaMedia (5.5)—

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

tracing: kprobe: Fix potential null-ptr-deref on trace_event_file in kprobe_event_gen_test_exit()

When trace_get_event_file() failed, gen_kretprobe_test will be assigned as the error code. If module kprobe_event_gen_test is removed now, the null pointer dereference will happen in kprobe_event_gen_test_exit(). Check if gen_kprobe_test or gen_kretprobe_test is error code or NULL before dereference them.
