Vendor Workaround
The default Red Hat Enterprise Linux kernel prevents unprivileged users from being able to use eBPF by the kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled sysctl. This would require a privileged user with CAP_SYS_ADMIN or root to be able to abuse this flaw reducing its attack space. For the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 the eBPF for unprivileged users is always disabled. For the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 or 9 to confirm the current state, inspect the sysctl with the command: # cat /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_bpf_disabled The setting of 1 would mean that unprivileged users cannot use eBPF, mitigating the flaw. A kernel update will be required to mitigate the flaw for the root or users with CAP_SYS_ADMIN capabilities. Note: A fix for this CVE may be backported as a part of one of the future BPF subsystem rebases.
