Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
bpf: crypto: Use the correct destructor kfunc type<br />
<br />
With CONFIG_CFI enabled, the kernel strictly enforces that indirect<br />
function calls use a function pointer type that matches the target<br />
function. I ran into the following type mismatch when running BPF<br />
self-tests:<br />
<br />
CFI failure at bpf_obj_free_fields+0x190/0x238 (target:<br />
bpf_crypto_ctx_release+0x0/0x94; expected type: 0xa488ebfc)<br />
Internal error: Oops - CFI: 00000000f2008228 [#1] SMP<br />
...<br />
<br />
As bpf_crypto_ctx_release() is also used in BPF programs and using<br />
a void pointer as the argument would make the verifier unhappy, add<br />
a simple stub function with the correct type and register it as the<br />
destructor kfunc instead.
