Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Fix use-after-free on mm_struct in bpf_find_vma() bpf_find_vma() reads task->mm and calls mmap_read_trylock(mm) without holding a reference on the mm. On a foreign task, a concurrent exit_mm() can free the mm_struct between the lockless read and the trylock, resulting in a use-after-free. mm_struct is not SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU. For the current task, task->mm is stable. For a foreign task, pin the mm under task->alloc_lock
