{"id":"RLSA-2024:9188","summary":"Low: bpftrace security update","details":"BPFtrace is a high-level tracing language for Linux enhanced Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) available in recent Linux kernels (4.x). BPFtrace uses LLVM as a backend to compile scripts to BPF-bytecode and makes use of BCC for interacting with the Linux BPF system, as well as existing Linux tracing capabilities: kernel dynamic tracing (kprobes), user-level dynamic tracing (uprobes), and tracepoints. The BPFtrace language is inspired by awk and C, and predecessor tracers such as DTrace and SystemTap\n\nSecurity Fix(es):\n\n* bpftrace: unprivileged users can force loading of compromised linux headers (CVE-2024-2313)\n\nFor more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.\n\nAdditional Changes:\n\nFor detailed information on changes in this release, see the Rocky Linux 9.5 Release Notes linked from the References section.","modified":"2026-02-04T20:15:13.315142Z","published":"2025-03-17T20:16:49.937392Z","upstream":["CVE-2024-2313"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://errata.rockylinux.org/RLSA-2024:9188"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2269014"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"bpftrace","ecosystem":"Rocky Linux:9","purl":"pkg:rpm/rocky-linux/bpftrace?distro=rocky-linux-9&epoch=0"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"0:0.21.1-1.el9"}],"database_specific":{"yum_repository":"AppStream"}}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/resf-osv-data/RLSA-2024:9188.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.3","credits":[{"name":"Rocky Enterprise Software Foundation"},{"name":"Red Hat"}]}
