NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream linux-4.19 package and not the linux-4.19 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the Linux kernel through 5.13.7, an unprivileged BPF program can obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a Speculative Store Bypass side-channel attack because a certain preempting store operation does not necessarily occur before a store operation that has an attacker-controlled value.
