CVE-2026-99236

Περιγραφή

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tracing: Reject incomplete event filter expressions A non-empty expression normally finishes in predicate_parse()-s inner loop, which resolves the pending logical operators before jumping to finalization. If the input ends after an operator, possibly followed by unary -!- tokens, the outer loop instead falls through with unresolved operator state. For example, -common_pid == 1 || common_pid == 2 &&- leaves prog[0].target equal to -1. The second pass then reads prog[-1] before the forward-jump check can reject it. Depending on adjacent slab contents, it can also copy an out-of-bounds word into a branch target that passes the forward-only check. A self-targeted perf tracepoint counting event can reach this path through PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_FILTER. Reject the outer-loop fallthrough when a predicate has already been parsed. This ensures that non-empty expressions only reach finalization after the inner loop has resolved their operators. Keep the existing no-filter error for input that has no predicates. Add a regression test for trailing logical operators and unary negations.
