Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper helper-call offset handling in bpf_do_misc_fixups() when the BPF interpreter executes a program whose helper calls were expected to be inlined by JIT compilation. A local user can execute a BPF program containing such helper calls to cause a denial of service.

JIT compilation must be unavailable at runtime, such as when it is disabled or when dynamic JIT compilation fails.
