Threat Intelligence
The probability is the direct output of the EPSS model, and conveys an overall sense of the threat of exploitation in the wild. The percentile measures the EPSS probability relative to all known EPSS scores. Note: This data is updated daily, relying on the latest available EPSS model version. Check out the EPSS documentation for more details.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix a sdiv overflow issue
Zac Ecob reported a problem where a bpf program may cause kernel crash due to the following error: Oops: divide error: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI
The failure is due to the below signed divide: LLONG_MIN/-1 where LLONG_MIN equals to -9,223,372,036,854,775,808. LLONG_MIN/-1 is supposed to give a positive number 9,223,372,036,854,775,808, but it is impossible since for 64-bit system, the maximum positive number is 9,223,372,036,854,775,807. On x86_64, LLONG_MIN/-1 will cause a kernel exception. On arm64, the result for LLONG_MIN/-1 is LLONG_MIN.
Further investigation found all the following sdiv/smod cases may trigger an exception when bpf program is running on x86_64 platform:
- LLONG_MIN/-1 for 64bit operation
- INT_MIN/-1 for 32bit operation
- LLONG_MIN%-1 for 64bit operation
- INT_MIN%-1 for 32bit operation where -1 can be an immediate or in a register.
On arm64, there are no exceptions:
- LLONG_MIN/-1 = LLONG_MIN
- INT_MIN/-1 = INT_MIN
- LLONG_MIN%-1 = 0
- INT_MIN%-1 = 0 where -1 can be an immediate or in a register.
Insn patching is needed to handle the above cases and the patched codes produced results aligned with above arm64 result. The below are pseudo codes to handle sdiv/smod exceptions including both divisor -1 and divisor 0 and the divisor is stored in a register.
sdiv: tmp = rX tmp += 1 /* [-1, 0] -> [0, 1] if tmp >(unsigned) 1 goto L2 if tmp == 0 goto L1 rY = 0 L1: rY = -rY; goto L3 L2: rY /= rX L3:
smod: tmp = rX tmp += 1 /* [-1, 0] -> [0, 1] if tmp >(unsigned) 1 goto L1 if tmp == 1 (is64 ? goto L2 : goto L3) rY = 0; goto L2 L1: rY %= rX L2: goto L4 // only when !is64 L3: wY = wY // only when !is64 L4:
