ALSA-2024:9188
Vulnerability from osv_almalinux – Published: 2024-11-12 00:00 – Updated: 2024-11-18 11:46 – Source websiteBPFtrace is a high-level tracing language for Linux enhanced Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) available in recent Linux kernels (4.x). BPFtrace uses LLVM as a backend to compile scripts to BPF-bytecode and makes use of BCC for interacting with the Linux BPF system, as well as existing Linux tracing capabilities: kernel dynamic tracing (kprobes), user-level dynamic tracing (uprobes), and tracepoints. The BPFtrace language is inspired by awk and C, and predecessor tracers such as DTrace and SystemTap
Security Fix(es):
- bpftrace: unprivileged users can force loading of compromised linux headers (CVE-2024-2313)
