This is because the\nhelper is expected to be inlined by the JIT compiler later. Therefore,\ninsn->imm remains as the raw helper enum ID.\n\nHowever, if JIT is disabled at runtime (net.core.bpf_jit_enable=0) or\nif JIT compilation fails dynamically (e.g., due to OOM), the program\nfalls back to the BPF interpreter.\n\nWhen the interpreter executes (__bpf_call_base + insn->imm) with the\nunpatched raw ID, it jumps into an invalid address space, triggering\nan instruction alignment fault or a kernel panic.\n\nAlthough these helpers have valid C implementations in the kernel, the\nomission of offset rewriting makes runtime interpreter fallback fatal.\n\nFix this by setting 'prog->jit_required = 1' when helper call rewriting\nis skipped for JIT inlining. This ensures that such programs are safely\nrejected if JIT is not available, preventing the runtime kernel panic.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/21c6445366795fa3a89954e1d318e7c8afdef843","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f1c27922576edccb99d0257827d09bd05c0304a6"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:55:23.253742848+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-93135","score":0.00198,"percentile":0.09422,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
