CVE-2026-64163CVE-2026-64163

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: test_kprobes: clear kprobes between test runs Running the kprobes sanity tests twice makes all tests fail and eventually crashes the kernel. [root@martin-riscv-1 ~]# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/kunit/kprobes_test/run ... # Totals: pass:5 fail:0 skip:0 total:5 ok 1 kprobes_test [root@martin-riscv-1 ~]# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/kunit/kprobes_test/run ... # test_kprobe: EXPECTATION FAILED at lib/tests/test_kprobes.c:64 Expected 0 == register_kprobe(&kp), but register_kprobe(&kp) == -22 (0xffffffffffffffea) ... Unable to handle kernel paging request ... The testsuite defines several kprobes and kretprobes as static variables that are preserved across test runs. After register_kprobe and unregister_kprobe, a kprobe contains some leftover data that must be cleared before the kprobe can be registered again. The tests are setting symbol_name to define the probe location. Address and flags must be cleare
