In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: bpf: Add BHB mitigation to the epilogue for cBPF programs
A malicious BPF program may manipulate the branch history to influence what the hardware speculates will happen next.
On exit from a BPF program, emit the BHB mititgation sequence.
This is only applied for 'classic' cBPF programs that are loaded by seccomp.
