From c591ba1acd081d4980713e47869dd1cc3d963d19 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Rostedt Date: Fri, 22 Aug 2025 18:36:06 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] ftrace: Also allocate and copy hash for reading of filter files commit bfb336cf97df7b37b2b2edec0f69773e06d11955 upstream. Currently the reader of set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace just adds the pointer to the global tracer hash to its iterator. Unlike the writer that allocates a copy of the hash, the reader keeps the pointer to the filter hashes. This is problematic because this pointer is static across function calls that release the locks that can update the global tracer hashes. This can cause UAF and similar bugs. Allocate and copy the hash for reading the filter files like it is done for the writers. This not only fixes UAF bugs, but also makes the code a bit simpler as it doesn't have to differentiate when to free the iterator's hash between writers and readers.
