CVE-2023-53108
IBM z/VM Linux Kernel Iucv Interrupt Data Vulnerability
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/iucv: Fix size of interrupt data iucv_irq_data needs to be 4 bytes larger. These bytes are not used by the iucv module, but written by the z/VM hypervisor in case a CPU is deconfigured.
