      <title>CVE-2026-89988 — kprobes: Protect kprobe_blacklist with RCU</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-89988</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;kprobes: Protect kprobe_blacklist with RCU&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;__within_kprobe_blacklist() traverses kprobe_blacklist without holding
kprobe_mutex. When a module is unloaded, kprobe_remove_area_blacklist()
removes blacklist entries and immediately frees them with kfree().
A concurrent call to within_kprobe_blacklist() can therefore dereference
freed memory.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Furthermore, within_kprobe_blacklist() can be called in atomic or
non-preemptible contexts where the sleeping kprobe_mutex cannot be taken.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Protect kprobe_blacklist with RCU. Use guard(rcu)() and
list_for_each_entry_rcu() for traversal, list_add_tail_rcu() for
insertions, list_del_rcu() for deletions, and kfree_rcu() to reclaim
entries safely after a grace period.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
