In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/zcrypt: Pad trailing CCA or EP11 message with zeros
The both functions xcrb_msg_to_type6cprb_msgx() and
xcrb_msg_to_type6_ep11cprb_msgx() copy the user space message into a
kernel buffer based on the message length. But on further processing
the message is supposed to be 4 byte length adjusted. Thus up to 3
bytes of uninitialized kernel memory are forwarded to further
processing steps and may unwanted expose kernel memory to the crypto
card firmware.
This patch contains code to pad the gap between user space copied
message and message buffer length sent down to further processing of
the CCA or EP11 message to zeros.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's s390/zcrypt component. When copying user-space messages into a kernel buffer, the system fails to properly pad the message to a 4-byte length. This oversight can lead to up to three bytes of uninitialized kernel memory being exposed to the crypto card firmware, potentially resulting in information disclosure.
