AI-suggested
A fix is available that sets the ftrace_managed flag in the register_fentry_multi() function to properly manage tracing_multi trampolines. Users should apply the official Linux kernel patches that include this fix. Since no cloud service is involved, manual patching of affected Linux kernel versions is required. Patch status is confirmed by the vendor advisory describing the fix.
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Mark tracing_multi trampolines as ftrace managed Since tracing_multi link does not set ftrace_managed, it would fail to release the tracing_multi link when attaching tracing_multi link and then attaching fentry link. [ 3.714215] WARNING: kernel/bpf/trampoline.c:1727 at bpf_trampoline_multi_detach+0x20b/0x240, CPU#1: test_progs/97 ... [ 3.733170] bpf_tracing_multi_link_release+0x14/0x30 [ 3.733890] bpf_link_free+0x58/0x130 [ 3.734414] bpf_link_release+0x23/0x30 Fix it by setting 'ftrace_managed = true' in register_fentry_multi().
