Base vector

AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description: The issue is related to the s390/cio component of the Linux kernel, where a buffer is not properly terminated, leading to an out-of-bounds (OOB) read when using scanf. This can cause a denial of service. The problem arises because the copied buffer is not ensured to be NUL terminated, allowing scanf to read beyond the buffer's boundaries.

Recommendations: At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
