If kernel headers need to be extracted, bpftrace will attempt to load them from a temporary directory. An unprivileged attacker could use this to force bcc to load compromised linux headers. Linux distributions which provide kernel headers by default are not affected by default.
Si es necesario extraer los encabezados del kernel, bpftrace intentará cargarlos desde un directorio temporal. Un atacante sin privilegios podría usar esto para obligar a bcc a cargar encabezados de Linux comprometidos. Las distribuciones de Linux que proporcionan encabezados de kernel de forma predeterminada no se ven afectadas de forma predeterminada.
A flaw was found in BPFtrace. This issue occurs when extracting kernel headers, it tries to load them from a temporary directory. This issue could allow an attacker to force bpftrace to load compromised Linux headers by placing malicious headers in the temporary directory, leading to potential security risks, unauthorized access, or system compromise.
