Subject: [PATCH] x86/kprobes: Fix KRETPROBES when CONFIG_KRETPROBE_ON_RETHOOK is set
Date: Fri, 15 Apr 2022 20:10:06 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220415181006.GA14021@pi3.com.pl> (raw)

[PATCH] x86/kprobes: Fix KRETPROBES when CONFIG_KRETPROBE_ON_RETHOOK is set

The recent kernel change "kprobes: Use rethook for kretprobe if possible",
introduced a potential NULL pointer dereference bug in the KRETPROBE
mechanism. The official Kprobes documentation defines that "Any or all
handlers can be NULL". Unfortunately, there is a missing return handler
verification to fulfill these requirements and can result in a NULL pointer
dereference bug.

This patch adds such verification in kretprobe_rethook_handler() function.

Fixes: 73f9b911faa7 ("kprobes: Use rethook for kretprobe if possible")
