Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, arm64: Fix trampoline for BPF_TRAMP_F_CALL_ORIG
When BPF_TRAMP_F_CALL_ORIG is set, the trampoline calls
__bpf_tramp_enter() and __bpf_tramp_exit() functions, passing them
the struct bpf_tramp_image *im pointer as an argument in R0.
The trampoline generation code uses emit_addr_mov_i64() to emit
instructions for moving the bpf_tramp_image address into R0, but
emit_addr_mov_i64() assumes the address to be in the vmalloc() space
and uses only 48 bits. Because bpf_tramp_image is allocated using
kzalloc(), its address can use more than 48-bits, in this case the
trampoline will pass an invalid address to __bpf_tramp_enter/exit()
causing a kernel crash.
Fix this by using emit_a64_mov_i64() in place of emit_addr_mov_i64()
as it can work with addresses that are greater than 48-bits.

"value": "En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: bpf, arm64: Reparar trampol\u00edn para BPF_TRAMP_F_CALL_ORIG Cuando BPF_TRAMP_F_CALL_ORIG est\u00e1 configurado, el trampol\u00edn llama a las funciones __bpf_tramp_enter() y __bpf_tramp_exit(), pas\u00e1ndoles el puntero struct bpf_tramp_image *im como argumento en R0 . El c\u00f3digo de generaci\u00f3n de trampol\u00edn usa emit_addr_mov_i64() para emitir instrucciones para mover la direcci\u00f3n bpf_tramp_image a R0, pero emit_addr_mov_i64() asume que la direcci\u00f3n est\u00e1 en el espacio vmalloc() y usa solo 48 bits.

Solucione este problema utilizando emit_a64_mov_i64() en lugar de emit_addr_mov_i64(), ya que puede funcionar con direcciones superiores a 48 bits."
