      <title>CVE-2026-98046 — bpf: Mark bpf_btf_find_by_name_kind() as sleepable</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-98046</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;bpf: Mark bpf_btf_find_by_name_kind() as sleepable&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When bpf_btf_find_by_name_kind() finds a type in module BTF, it
returns a new BTF object fd through __btf_new_fd(). This reaches
anon_inode_getfd(), which can sleep while allocating or expanding the
current task fd table.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The helper prototype does not set might_sleep, so the verifier allows
the helper in non-sleepable contexts such as BPF timer callbacks. The
fd allocation can then sleep in softirq context and install the fd into
the interrupted task.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Mark the helper as sleepable. This preserves calls from the main body
of a sleepable syscall program while rejecting calls from its
non-sleepable regions.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
