"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nbpf: Reject legacy packet loads from callbacks\n\ncheck_ld_abs() models a failed BPF_LD_ABS or BPF_LD_IND in a\nsubprogram as an implicit return with R0 set to zero. It calls\nprepare_func_exit() to explore this synthesized path.\n\nWhen the load is reached directly from a synchronous callback,\nprepare_func_exit() enforces the callback return contract and marks R0\nprecise. R0 is not derived from a real instruction on this path, so\nprecision backtracking reaches the callback call with R0 still requested\nand triggers the \"callback unexpected regs\" verifier bug. A privileged\nprogram loader can therefore cause a verifier warning and an -EFAULT\nBPF_PROG_LOAD.\n\nThese legacy packet-load instructions are deprecated. Reject them from\ncallbacks rather than complicating their implicit-return model. Check all\nactive frames before constructing the implicit return so nested static\nsubprograms cannot hide the callback context.\n\nGlobal functions are verified independently with a fresh frame zero, so\nan active-frame check cannot identify a global function called from a\ncallback. Also check the complete subprogram call graph during stack-depth\nvalidation and reject a function containing a legacy load when any caller\nis a callback. This covers global and static descendants without making\nhas_ld_abs transitive, preserving its per-function BTF return-type check.\nOrdinary uses outside callbacks remain supported."
