"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nbpf: Fix vmlinux BTF prep race in bpf_get_btf_vmlinux\n\nbpf_get_btf_vmlinux() lazily parses the vmlinux BTF under the\nbpf_verifier_lock, but publishes the result through a plain store\nand re-checks it through a plain lockless load. Nothing orders\nthe stores initializing the struct btf inside btf_parse_vmlinux()\nagainst the store publishing the pointer: On a weakly ordered\narch, a concurrent first-time caller taking the lockless fast\npath could in principle observe the pointer before the parsed\ncontents are visible. The mutex_unlock() does not help such a\nreader given it only synchronizes with a later acquisition of the\nsame lock. Thus, publish the pointer with smp_store_release()\nand read it on the fast path with smp_load_acquire().\n\nAcquire semantics are needed rather than a dependency-ordered\nREAD_ONCE(): btf_parse_vmlinux() also populates globals outside\nthe returned object (e.g. bpf_ctx_convert.t). An address\ndependency would only order accesses performed through the\npointer and not cover other globals."

"value": "AV:L - The race is reached from local bpf(2) BPF_PROG_LOAD: bpf_prog_load() calls bpf_get_btf_vmlinux() on the attach_btf_id path, and bpf_check() always calls it before verification. No remote protocol message carries the data that publishes btf_vmlinux.\nAC:L - The attacker issues concurrent BPF_PROG_LOAD (or BPF_MAP_CREATE of BPF_MAP_TYPE_STRUCT_OPS into bpf_struct_ops_map_alloc) so one thread runs btf_parse_vmlinux() under bpf_verifier_lock while the other takes the lockless `if (!btf_vmlinux)` load; they control both sides of that publication window.\nPR:L - The lockless consumer is bpf_check() when bpf_token_capable(token, CAP_BPF) sets is_priv and skips mutex_lock(&bpf_verifier_lock). CAP_BPF is delegable with a BPF token into a non-init user namespace, so init-namespace root is not required.\nUI:N - The attacker issues the concurrent bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD) or bpf(BPF_MAP_CREATE) syscalls themselves; no other user must mount a filesystem, open a file, or load a program.\nS:U - A torn struct btf and bpf_ctx_convert.t are consumed by the host verifier and BTF helpers in the same kernel; that is in-kernel privilege escalation or DoS, not a KVM/Xen guest-to-host escape or IOMMU bypass.\nC:H - A lockless reader can observe btf_vmlinux before btf->types, btf->strings and btf->hdr.str_len are visible. btf_type_by_id() then returns btf->types[id] and btf_str_by_offset() returns &btf->strings[offset] (check_ptr_to_map_access, btf_find_by_name_kind), an unbounded kernel read.\nI:H - Privileged bpf_check() trusts that torn vmlinux BTF for PTR_TO_BTF_ID sizes, and get_kern_ctx_btf_id() walks bpf_ctx_convert.t members; garbage type metadata can accept illegal kernel stores. btf_get/btf_put on a not-yet-visible refcnt can also call_rcu btf_free_rcu of the live object.\nA:H - get_kern_ctx_btf_id() does btf_type_member(bpf_ctx_convert.t) with no NULL check when that global is still unseen, and check_ptr_to_map_access() loads t->name_off after btf_type_by_id() returns NULL because nr_types is still 0, oopsing the kernel."
