They are reached through local crypto API users: AF_ALG sockets binding \"ecb(paes)\" etc. (algif_skcipher recvmsg -> ecb_paes_crypt -> engine) or dm-crypt. No remote peer supplies the data that causes the failure.\nAC:H - The double completion fires only when the engine path returns an error. That needs the protected key to be invalidated (-EKEYEXPIRED, e.g. the wrapping key changed) and then re-conversion to fail in paes_convert_key() because the card is busy or offline. AF_ALG blocks setkey while op sockets exist, so the attacker cannot force this state.\nPR:L - AF_ALG socket creation and binding the paes/phmac algorithms need no capability, so a local unprivileged user holding usable key material can push requests through the paes engine path.\nUI:N - No victim action is needed. Once the engine-side failure condition exists, the attacker's own AF_ALG requests (or ordinary dm-crypt I/O) hit the double completion.\nS:U - The corruption stays within the kernel's own security authority. There is no guest-to-host or other boundary crossing.\nC:H - crypto_pump_requests() calls crypto_request_complete() a second time after crypto_finalize_skcipher_request(). In AF_ALG the extra complete of ctx->wait lets a later request's areq be freed while the engine still processes it, so the engine keeps reading freed memory (use-after-free).\nI:H - The engine's skcipher walk and cpacf output keep writing into the freed request and scatterlist memory. For dm-crypt, the same bio completes twice. Both are use-after-free writes that can be used for heap corruption.\nA:H - The double completion corrupts request/bio lifetime (double bio end or a use-after-free on the areq), which can crash the kernel or corrupt dm-crypt I/O."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["arch/s390/crypto/paes_s390.c", "arch/s390/crypto/phmac_s390.c"], "versions": [{"version": "6cd87cb5ef6ca50ae17c371482ceaab1d635e232", "lessThan": "972e0d9b7d1d112240ccde1f1be85bf9ffaa1720", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "6cd87cb5ef6ca50ae17c371482ceaab1d635e232", "lessThan": "5480291aa848e19e61175abfd457933516db70c6", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "6cd87cb5ef6ca50ae17c371482ceaab1d635e232", "lessThan": "ac1481320110b803ab9b79ab4d2ca11a74fc05f2", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}]}, {"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["arch/s390/crypto/paes_s390.c", "arch/s390/crypto/phmac_s390.c"], "versions": [{"version": "6.16", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "6.16", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.18.53", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.2.7", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.2.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.3", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix"}]}], "cpeApplicability": [{"nodes": [{"operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.16", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.53"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.16", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2.7"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.16", "versionEndExcluding": "7.3"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/972e0d9b7d1d112240ccde1f1be85bf9ffaa1720"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5480291aa848e19e61175abfd457933516db70c6"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ac1481320110b803ab9b79ab4d2ca11a74fc05f2"}], "title": "s390/crypto: Fix wrong return code to engine in asynch callbacks", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
