From: "Masami Hiramatsu (Google)" <mhiramat@kernel.org> stable inclusion from stable-v6.6.157 commit 630ed8734a02b992e8a97538179c2ece42c5210f category: bugfix bugzilla: https://atomgit.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/19108 CVE: CVE-2026-89988 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- commit 0c4256196b3a105307e2235fbfd85e768bbcdd0f upstream. __within_kprobe_blacklist() traverses kprobe_blacklist without holding kprobe_mutex. When a module is unloaded, kprobe_remove_area_blacklist() removes blacklist entries and immediately frees them with kfree(). A concurrent call to within_kprobe_blacklist() can therefore dereference freed memory. Furthermore, within_kprobe_blacklist() can be called in atomic or non-preemptible contexts where the sleeping kprobe_mutex cannot be taken. Protect kprobe_blacklist with RCU. Use guard(rcu)() and list_for_each_entry_rcu() for traversal, list_add_tail_rcu() for insertions, list_del_rcu() for deletions, and kfree_rcu() to reclaim entries safely after a grace period.
