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.","solution":null,"affectedProducts":["Rocky Linux 8"],"fixes":[{"ticket":"2269014","sourceBy":"Red Hat","sourceLink":"https:\/\/bugzilla.redhat.com\/show_bug.cgi?id=2269014","description":""}],"cves":[{"name":"CVE-2024-2313","sourceBy":"MITRE","sourceLink":"https:\/\/cve.mitre.org\/cgi-bin\/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2024-2313","cvss3ScoringVector":"UNKNOWN","cvss3BaseScore":"UNKNOWN","cwe":"UNKNOWN"}],"references":[],"publishedAt":"2024-11-08T15:56:47.559546Z","rpms":{"Rocky Linux 8":{"nvras":["bpftrace-0:0.16.0-6.el8_10.x86_64.rpm","bpftrace-debuginfo-0:0.16.0-6.el8_10.aarch64.rpm","bpftrace-0:0.16.0-6.el8_10.aarch64.rpm","bpftrace-0:0.16.0-6.el8_10.src.rpm","bpftrace-debuginfo-0:0.16.0-6.el8_10.x86_64.rpm","bpftrace-debugsource-0:0.16.0-6.el8_10.aarch64.rpm","bpftrace-debugsource-0:0.16.0-6.el8_10.x86_64.rpm"]}},"rebootSuggested":false,"buildReferences":[]}
