CVE-2026-98800CVE-2026-98800
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Wait for an RCU tasks grace period before freeing trampoline progs
When a prog is detached from a trampoline, it is freed after an RCU
grace period, or an RCU tasks trace one if it is sleepable. This covers
the tasks that are running the prog, since the prog's enter helper takes
the matching read lock before the prog is called. On a preemptible
kernel, it doesn't cover a task that was preempted in the trampoline
just before the enter helper. That task holds no lock yet, and it calls
the prog after it was freed:
