CVE-2026-93144NVD

Vulnerability Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf: Reject writes through untrusted BTF pointers

check_ptr_to_btf_access() lets program-type btf_struct_access callbacks
validate writes before the default BTF access path rejects non-read
accesses. That bypasses the read-only policy for untrusted BTF pointers
created by helpers such as bpf_rdonly_cast().

Reject non-read accesses through PTR_UNTRUSTED BTF pointers at the
common entry point, before the callback branch to handle all cases.
