CVE-2026-74338NVD

Vulnerability Summary

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

bpf: Reject sleepable BPF_LSM_CGROUP programs at load time

The cgroup shim runs under rcu_read_lock_dont_migrate(), so we should
not attach any sleepable BPF programs there. Add support to the verifier
to explicitly reject attempts to load sleepable BPF programs destined
for LSM cgroup attachment.

Without this, we get the following splat from a BPF_LSM_CGROUP
program marked BPF_F_SLEEPABLE attached to file_open when it calls
bpf_get_dentry_xattr():

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/rwsem.c:1567
in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 34317, name: load

libbpf provides a .s named section variant for every sleepable
program type except lsm_cgroup, reflecting that per-cgroup LSM programs
are intended to only run in a non-sleepable context.

The above splat was obtained by bypassing libbpf by using bpf(2)
directly.
