s390/dasd: Do not complete a failed ESE read as successful
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 0/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.17% (FIRST EPSS).
- Fixed version: Linux Linux 5.5, 5.6, 52b331c99baac653ca794bd8487c8ec4de8db203.
- Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 5.5, 5.6, 52b331c99baac653ca794bd8487c8ec4de8db203 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/dasd: Do not complete a failed ESE read as successful dasd_int_handler() completes an NRF read of an unallocated ESE track by calling ese_read() and unconditionally marking the request DASD_CQR_SUCCESS. dasd_eckd_ese_read() can return an error before it has zeroed the destination buffer: a failed sense-data parse or a current track outside the requested range both return early, leaving the destination pages untouched. The request is still completed successfully, so the block layer is handed stale / uninitialized memory instead of zeros. Check the ese_read() return value and fail the request through the normal error path instead of forcing DASD_CQR_SUCCESS.

No credits in the CNA record.
Variant candidates
Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.
No nightly-computed relations.
Chain candidates
An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
