[ Upstream commit f46fab0e36e611a2389d3843f34658c849b6bd60 ] Anastasios reported crash on stable 5.15 kernel with following BPF attached to lsm hook: SEC("lsm.s/bprm_creds_for_exec") int BPF_PROG(bprm_creds_for_exec, struct linux_binprm *bprm) { struct path *path = &bprm->executable->f_path; char p[128] = { 0 }; bpf_d_path(path, p, 128); return 0; } But bprm->executable can be NULL, so bpf_d_path call will crash: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000018 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC NOPTI ...

This issue is fixed in current bpf code, where we identify and mark trusted pointers, so the above code would fail even to load. For the sake of the stable trees and to workaround potentially broken verifier in the future, adding the code that reads the path object from the passed pointer and verifies it's valid in kernel space.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
