Description

If kernel headers need to be extracted, bpftrace will attempt to load them from a temporary directory. An unprivileged attacker could use this to force bcc to load compromised linux headers. Linux distributions which provide kernel headers by default are not affected by default.

v < 0.20.2
Affected range stops below 0.20.2, so it looks safe — our inference, not a vendor statement
Vendor states this is fixed in v0.20.2 (unaffected)
linux-linux-kernel (environment)

Runs on — not affected
