Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
samples/bpf: syscall_tp_user: Fix array out-of-bound access
Commit 06744f24696e ("samples/bpf: Add openat2() enter/exit tracepoint
to syscall_tp sample") added two more eBPF programs to support the
openat2() syscall. However, it did not increase the size of the array
that holds the corresponding bpf_links. This leads to an out-of-bound
access on that array in the bpf_object__for_each_program loop and could
corrupt other variables on the stack. On our testing QEMU, it corrupts
the map1_fds array and causes the sample to fail:
# ./syscall_tp
prog #0: map ids 4 5
verify map:4 val: 5
map_lookup failed: Bad file descriptor
Dynamically allocate the array based on the number of programs reported
by libbpf to prevent similar inconsistencies in the future
