Page history
Changes are dated when recorded; day views use the last saved version from that UTC day, and citations stay fixed.
CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.
No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

bpf: Fix NULL-ptr-deref in btf_var_show()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix NULL-ptr-deref in btf_var_show()
btf_var_show() calls btf_type_id_resolve() unconditionally, which
dereferences btf->resolved_ids. That is NULL for a base BTF - e.g. the
vmlinux BTF that bpf_snprintf_btf() renders against - since base BTF is
not resolved during parsing. btf_modifier_show() guards this with
'if (btf->resolved_ids)', but btf_var_show() does not.
A BPF program that passes the type_id of a BTF_KIND_VAR from the vmlinux
BTF to bpf_snprintf_btf() thus NULL-derefs:
KASAN: probably user-memory-access in range [0x46638-0x4663f]
RIP: 0010:btf_var_show (kernel/bpf/btf.c:2929)

Resolve the var's type directly with btf_type_skip_modifiers() when
resolved_ids is NULL, mirroring btf_modifier_show().
