However percpu counters referenced by\nthe tags are freed by free_module(). This will lead to UAF if the memory\nallocated by a module is accessed after module was unloaded.\n\nTo fix this we allocate percpu counters for module allocation tags\ndynamically and we keep it alive for tags which are still in use after\nmodule unloading. This also removes the requirement of a larger\nPERCPU_MODULE_RESERVE when memory allocation profiling is enabled because\npercpu memory for counters does not need to be reserved anymore."}, {"lang": "es", "value": "En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: alloc_tag: asignar contadores por CPU para etiquetas de m\u00f3dulo din\u00e1micamente Cuando se descarga un m\u00f3dulo, este verifica si alguna de sus etiquetas a\u00fan est\u00e1 en uso y, de ser as\u00ed, mantenemos activa la memoria que contiene las etiquetas de asignaci\u00f3n del m\u00f3dulo hasta que todas las etiquetas est\u00e9n sin usar.
