In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: kcm: Hold RCU read lock while running BPF parser

kcm_parse_func_strparser() calls bpf_prog_run_pin_on_cpu() which
prevents CPU migration, but does not establish an RCU read-side
critical section. Consequently, BPF map operations can trigger
WARN_ON_ONCE(!bpf_rcu_lock_held()) when called from the KCM strparser
program.

Hold the RCU read lock while running the program.
