Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Fix potential UAF when reading bpf link info In bpf_link_show_fdinfo and bpf_link_get_info_by_fd, link->prog is accessed without holding any locks. If the prog is concurrently replaced via bpf_link_update, the old prog can be freed, leading to a potential UAF issue. Fix this by accessing link->prog under RCU protection to safely fetch the pointer and guarantee its lifetime while reading its fields.
