Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Incorrect Conversion between Numeric Types (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-53110)

CWE-ID: CWE-681 - Incorrect Conversion between Numeric Types

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause incorrect behavior in kernel BPF processing.

The vulnerability exists due to improper handling of integer extension in the s390 BPF JIT compiler when processing BPF program return values and kfunc arguments. A local user can trigger the JIT compilation of crafted BPF code to cause incorrect behavior in kernel BPF processing.

The issue affects s390 systems because the ABI requires zero extension for unsigned arguments and return values, but only sign extension was implemented.
