FKIE_CVE-2021-47486
Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2024-05-22 09:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 04:17
Severity
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
riscv, bpf: Fix potential NULL dereference
The bpf_jit_binary_free() function requires a non-NULL argument. When
the RISC-V BPF JIT fails to converge in NR_JIT_ITERATIONS steps,
jit_data->header will be NULL, which triggers a NULL
dereference. Avoid this by checking the argument, prior calling the
function.
