A memory corruption vulnerability in the Linux kernel's tracing subsystem was fixed. The issue arises from improper handling of the histogram stacktrace modifier, which can lead to out-of-bounds memory access during event histogram triggering. This can cause kernel crashes such as NULL pointer dereferences. The vulnerability affects specific versions of the linux-hwe-edge kernel. The flaw is addressed by enforcing that only fields holding valid stacktraces are accepted.
