Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
ftrace: Fix invalid address access in lookup_rec() when index is 0<br />
<br />
KASAN reported follow problem:<br />
<br />
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in lookup_rec<br />
Read of size 8 at addr ffff000199270ff0 by task modprobe<br />
CPU: 2 Comm: modprobe<br />
Call trace:<br />
kasan_report<br />
__asan_load8<br />
lookup_rec<br />
ftrace_location<br />
arch_check_ftrace_location<br />
check_kprobe_address_safe<br />
register_kprobe<br />
<br />
When checking pg->records[pg->index - 1].ip in lookup_rec(), it can get a<br />
pg which is newly added to ftrace_pages_start in ftrace_process_locs().<br />
Before the first pg->index++, index is 0 and accessing pg->records[-1].ip<br />
will cause this problem.<br />
<br />
Don&#39;t check the ip when pg->index is 0.
