Descriptions
BPF JIT compilers in the Linux kernel through 5.11.12 have incorrect computation of branch displacements, allowing them to execute arbitrary code within the kernel context. This affects arch/x86/net/bpf_jit_comp.c and arch/x86/net/bpf_jit_comp32.c.
Los compiladores BPF JIT en el kernel de Linux hasta la versión 5.11.12 tienen un cálculo incorrecto de los desplazamientos de rama, lo que les permite ejecutar código arbitrario dentro del contexto del kernel. Esto afecta a arch/x86/net/bpf_jit_comp.c y arch/x86/net/bpf_jit_comp32.c
A flaw was found in the Linux kernels eBPF implementation. By default, accessing the eBPF verifier is only accessible to privileged users with CAP_SYS_ADMIN. A local user with the ability to insert eBPF instructions can abuse a flaw in eBPF to corrupt memory. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability.
