CAP_BPF is also granted by bpf_token_capable() in a delegated user namespace.\nUI:N - The attacker loads the crafted program with bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD) and executes it themselves via BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN (sk_filter_prog_ops.test_run = bpf_prog_test_run_skb) or SO_ATTACH_BPF on their own socket; no other user must mount, open, or otherwise act.\nS:U - LY leaving stale high bits in BPF_REG_0 lets the JITed program read and write the host kernel through a verifier-approved PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE. That stays inside the same kernel authority; it is not a KVM guest-to-host or IOMMU bypass.\nC:H - do_refine_retval_range() sets R0\u2019s 64-bit range to [0, nr_cpu_ids-1] after BPF_FUNC_get_smp_processor_id, so check_map_access() allows adding it to a map-value pointer. LY preserves attacker high bits, so the subsequent BPF_LDX reads kernel memory far outside the map.\nI:H - The same forged pointer is a BPF_STX destination: the store lands at map_value + ((old_r0 & 0xFFFFFFFF00000000) | cpu_nr). That is an attacker-controlled kernel write usable for corruption and control-flow hijack.\nA:H - Using that out-of-bounds map-value pointer (map_value plus the uncleared high 32 bits of %r14 after LY of cpu_nr) faults on unmapped addresses and oopses or panics the kernel."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["arch/s390/net/bpf_jit_comp.c"], "versions": [{"version": "9012cf2491e3c5d28d098b0d6da804af82977032", "lessThan": "88500a86ab79f01c568de6ed00f5b1c5c79f11d5", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "9012cf2491e3c5d28d098b0d6da804af82977032", "lessThan": "5f6cc299938b561cb01e343bab7042611fcee12a", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}]}, {"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["arch/s390/net/bpf_jit_comp.c"], "versions": [{"version": "7.2", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "7.2", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.2.6", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.2.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.3", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix"}]}], "cpeApplicability": [{"nodes": [{"operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "7.2", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2.6"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "7.2", "versionEndExcluding": "7.3"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/88500a86ab79f01c568de6ed00f5b1c5c79f11d5"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5f6cc299938b561cb01e343bab7042611fcee12a"}], "title": "s390/bpf: Replace ly instruction with llgf", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
