In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: fix mm lifecycle in open-coded task_vma iterator
The open-coded task_vma iterator reads task->mm locklessly and acquires
mmap_read_trylock() but never calls mmget(). If the task exits
concurrently, the mm_struct can be freed as it is not
SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU, resulting in a use-after-free.
Safely read task->mm with a trylock on alloc_lock and acquire an mm
reference. Drop the reference via bpf_iter_mmput_async() in _destroy()
and error paths. bpf_iter_mmput_async() is a local wrapper around
mmput_async() with a fallback to mmput() on !CONFIG_MMU.
Reject irqs-disabled contexts (including NMI) up front. Operations used
by _next() and _destroy() (mmap_read_unlock, bpf_iter_mmput_async)
take spinlocks with IRQs disabled (pool->lock, pi_lock). Running from
NMI or from a tracepoint that fires with those locks held could
deadlock.
A trylock on alloc_lock is used instead of the blocking task_lock()
(get_task_mm) to avoid a deadlock when a softirq BPF program iterates
a task that already holds its alloc_lock on the same CPU.
