In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Guard conntrack opts error writes
The conntrack lookup and allocation kfuncs take an opts pointer
together with an opts__sz argument. The verifier checks only the memory
range described by opts__sz, but the wrappers unconditionally write
opts->error whenever the internal lookup or allocation helper returns an
error.
For an invalid size smaller than the end of opts->error, that write can
land outside the verifier-checked range. Keep returning NULL for invalid
arguments, but only report the error through opts->error when the
supplied size includes the field.
This preserves error reporting for the supported 12-byte and 16-byte
layouts, and for other invalid sizes that still include opts->error.
