In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, cgroup: Fix storage null-ptr-deref after replacing prog
Syzkaller reported a storage null-ptr-deref issue after replacing prog.
This occurs in the following scenario:
1. prog A, an empty prog, is attached to a cgrp.
2. prog B uses BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_CGROUP_STORAGE and calls the
bpf_get_local_storage helper.
3. link_update is called to replace prog A with prog B.
The reason is that __cgroup_bpf_replace fails to alloc and assign the
required cgrp storage for the incoming replacement prog. Consequently,
the new prog inherits an uninit storage, leading to null-ptr-deref panic
when kick the new prog.
Fix this by rejecting a link update if new_prog's cgroup storage is
incompatible with link->prog.
