GHSA-VFQ8-59V7-RR9V
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-06-20 12:31 – Updated: 2025-09-17 18:31In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Use VM_MAP instead of VM_ALLOC for ringbuf
After commit 2fd3fb0be1d1 ("kasan, vmalloc: unpoison VM_ALLOC pages after mapping"), non-VM_ALLOC mappings will be marked as accessible in __get_vm_area_node() when KASAN is enabled. But now the flag for ringbuf area is VM_ALLOC, so KASAN will complain out-of-bound access after vmap() returns. Because the ringbuf area is created by mapping allocated pages, so use VM_MAP instead.
After the change, info in /proc/vmallocinfo also changes from [start]-[end] 24576 ringbuf_map_alloc+0x171/0x290 vmalloc user to [start]-[end] 24576 ringbuf_map_alloc+0x171/0x290 vmap user
