      <title>CVE-2022-49797 — tracing: kprobe: Fix potential null-ptr-deref on trace_event_file in kprobe_event_gen_test_exit()</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2022-49797</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;tracing: kprobe: Fix potential null-ptr-deref on trace_event_file in kprobe_event_gen_test_exit()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When trace_get_event_file() failed, gen_kretprobe_test will be assigned
as the error code. If module kprobe_event_gen_test is removed now, the
null pointer dereference will happen in kprobe_event_gen_test_exit().
Check if gen_kprobe_test or gen_kretprobe_test is error code or NULL
before dereference them.&lt;/p&gt;
