GHSA-5G7W-F343-53G9
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-05-01 06:31 – Updated: 2025-09-18 15:30In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kprobes/x86: Use copy_from_kernel_nofault() to read from unsafe address
Read from an unsafe address with copy_from_kernel_nofault() in arch_adjust_kprobe_addr() because this function is used before checking the address is in text or not. Syzcaller bot found a bug and reported the case if user specifies inaccessible data area, arch_adjust_kprobe_addr() will cause a kernel panic.
