| Subject: CVE-2024-44969: s390/sclp: Prevent release of buffer in I/O |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| s390/sclp: Prevent release of buffer in I/O |
| |
| When a task waiting for completion of a Store Data operation is |
| interrupted, an attempt is made to halt this operation. If this attempt |
| fails due to a hardware or firmware problem, there is a chance that the |
| SCLP facility might store data into buffers referenced by the original |
| operation at a later time. |
| |
| Handle this situation by not releasing the referenced data buffers if |
| the halt attempt fails. For current use cases, this might result in a |
| leak of few pages of memory in case of a rare hardware/firmware |
| malfunction. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-44969 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
