VectorAV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel versions prior to 5.17-rc4
Description A flaw in the kvm s390 guest sida op function in KVM for s390 in the Linux kernel allows a local attacker with normal user privileges to obtain unauthorized memory write access. This issue is related to insufficient protection of service data, which can be exploited to gain unauthorized access to protected information.
Recommendations For Linux kernel versions prior to 5.17-rc4, update to version 5.17-rc4 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the kvm s390 guest sida op function to minimize the risk of exploitation.
