In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: uprobes: Fix NULL pointer dereference in hprobe_expire() Forking a task that has a pending uretprobe can oops the kernel with a NULL pointer dereference in the clone() path: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000018 Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP NOPTI RIP: 0010:hprobe_expire CR2: 0000000000000018 Call Trace: uprobe_copy_process copy_process kernel_clone __x64_sys_clone do_syscall_64 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe This was found on real hosts on Meta fleet. I've got the impression that this is what is happening: CPU 1 CPU 2 (traced task) ----- ------------------- hit uprobe, prepare_uretprobe(): hprobe LEASED, refcount >= 1 uprobe_unregister() put_uprobe(): refcount -> 0 fork() -> dup_utask()
