Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/syscalls: Add spectre boundary for syscall dispatch table
The s390 syscall number is directly controlled by userspace, but does
not have an array_index_nospec() boundary to prevent access past the
syscall function pointer tables.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's s390 architecture syscalls. A local attacker, by controlling the syscall number, could potentially access memory beyond the intended syscall function pointer tables. This lack of a boundary check, related to speculative execution (Spectre), may lead to information disclosure by allowing an attacker to read sensitive data from kernel memory.
Отчет
The upstream patch adds array_index_nospec() guarding on s390 syscall dispatch, closing speculative out-of-table reads. Red Hat treats this as architecture-specific Spectre hardening. Customers should consume updated s390 kernels; no discrete module unload applies.
