KVM: s390: Zero initialize data structures for inject_pfault_token
Summary
| CVE | CVE-2026-89921 |
| State | PUBLISHED |
| Assigner | Linux |
| Source Priority | CVE Program / NVD first with legacy fallback |
| Published | 2026-09-16 11:17:01 UTC |

| Description | In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: s390: Zero initialize data structures for inject_pfault_token
__kvm_inject_pfault_token() only sets .type and .u.ext.ext_params2 of
the on-stack struct kvm_s390_irq but the full ext substructure is copied
into the cpu local variable on inject. ext_params and pad contain stale
stack values.
Interrupt delivery only uses ext_params2, so nothing leaks to the guest,
but a host user can use the migration ioctls to get to the data.
Fix by zero-initializing the irq struct.
Do the same for the inti data structure. |
