  "description": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  tracing: Fix NULL pointer dereference in module event cache removal  A module-only event filter such as \u0022:mod:foo\u0022 is cached with a NULL event_mod-\u003Ematch when foo has not been loaded. If a later write tries to remove a specific match from the same module, remove_cache_mod() passes the NULL cached match to strcmp(), causing a NULL pointer dereference.  The issue can be reproduced from userspace:    echo \u0027:mod:trace_events_kunit_missing\u0027 \u003E /sys/kernel/tracing/set_event   echo \u0027!foo_bar:mod:trace_events_kunit_missing\u0027 \u003E\u003E /sys/kernel/tracing/set_event  The second write must be a concatenation (\u0022\u003E\u003E\u0022) to not include O_TRUNC as that would cause ftrace_clear_events() to clear the cached modules lines.  The crash was reproduced on x86_64 QEMU while KUnit workers contended on the event tracing path:    BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000   #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode   RIP: 0010:strcmp\u002B0x10/0x30   Call Trace:    __ftrace_set_clr_event_nolock\u002B0x373/0x4a0    ftrace_set_clr_event\u002B0xf0/0x180    ftrace_event_write\u002B0xdf/0x110    vfs_write\u002B0xf6/0x440    ksys_write\u002B0x68/0xe0    do_syscall_64\u002B0xf9/0x540    entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe\u002B0x77/0x7f  Check event_mod-\u003Ematch before comparing it, consistent with the existing NULL checks for the cached system and event fields. The mismatched removal continues to return -EINVAL; a broad cached module filter is removed with \u0022!:mod:\u003Cmodule\u003E\u0022.",
