Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tracing: ring-buffer: Fix to check event length before using Check the event length before adding it for accessing next index in rb_read_data_buffer(). Since this function is used for validating possibly broken ring buffers, the length of the event could be broken. In that case, the new event (e + len) can point a wrong address. To avoid invalid memory access at boot, check whether the length of each event is in the possible range before using it.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 6.12 < 6.12.75) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.13 < 6.18.16) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.19 < 6.19.6)
