CVE-2022-50654 — bpf: Fix panic due to wrong pageattr of im->image

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Fix panic due to wrong pageattr of im->image In the scenario where livepatch and kretfunc coexist, the pageattr of im->image is rox after arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline in bpf_trampoline_update, and then modify_fentry or register_fentry returns -EAGAIN from bpf_tramp_ftrace_ops_func, the BPF_TRAMP_F_ORIG_STACK flag will be configured, and arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline will be re-executed. At this time, because the pageattr of im->image is rox, arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline will read and write im->image, which causes a fault. as follows: insmod livepatch-sample.ko # samples/livepatch/livepatch-sample.c bpftrace -e 'kretfunc:cmdline_proc_show {}' BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffa0206000 PGD 322d067 P4D 322d067 PUD 322e063 PMD 1297e067 PTE d428061 Oops: 0003 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI CPU: 2 PID: 270 Comm: bpftrace Tainted: G E K 6.1.0 #5 RIP: 0010:arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline+0xed/0x8c0 RSP: 0018:ffffc90001083ad8 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: ffffffffa0206000 RBX: 0000000000000020 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: ffffffffa0206001 RSI: ffffffffa0206000 RDI: 0000000000000030 RBP: ffffc90001083b70 R08: 0000000000000066 R09: ffff88800f51b400 R10: 000000002e72c6e5 R11: 00000000d0a15080 R12: ffff8880110a68c8 R13: 0000000000000000 R14: ffff88800f51b400 R15: ffffffff814fec10 FS: 00007f87bc0dc780(0000) GS:ffff88803e600000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: ffffffffa0206000 CR3: 0000000010b70000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Call Trace: <TASK> bpf_trampoline_update+0x25a/0x6b0 __bpf_trampoline_link_prog+0x101/0x240 bpf_trampoline_link_prog+0x2d/0x50 bpf_tracing_prog_attach+0x24c/0x530 bpf_raw_tp_link_attach+0x73/0x1d0 __sys_bpf+0x100e/0x2570 __x64_sys_bpf+0x1c/0x30 do_syscall_64+0x5b/0x80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd With this patch, when modify_fentry or register_fentry returns -EAGAIN from bpf_tramp_ftrace_ops_func, the pageattr of im->image will be reset to nx+rw.

Low

Who exploits it and how urgent it is

A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.

No exploitation signal in the sources consulted so far.

How the score was calculated

EPSS 0.2% (30-day exploitation probability)+1

The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).

Triage

Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.

Not confirmed

Not in CISA KEV — an absence of record, not proof it is unexploited.

Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.

No fix documented by the sources we poll. That does not mean none exists: check the vendor advisory.

Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.

Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Linux Linux).
