Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-07-29 17:16 - Updated: 2026-08-17 05:18

Severity

7.8 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/pkey: Check length in pkey_pckmo handler implementation Explicitly check the length of the target buffer in the pkey_pckmo implementation of the key_to_protkey() handler function. The handler function fails, if the generated output data exceeds the length of the provided target buffer.

Detection rules are retrieved from Rulezet.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
