It is possible to trigger a NULL pointer dereference by writing an
incorrectly formatted string to krpobe_events (trying to create a
kretprobe omitting the symbol).
Example:
echo "r:event_1 " >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
That triggers this:

Fix by doing the proper argument checks in trace_kprobe_create().

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
