Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

This Linux kernel KVM issue affects the s390 pfault token injection path in multiple stable branches, with the vulnerable range starting at commit 383d0b050106 and fixed in several stable releases. An attacker with access to the host's migration ioctls can read stale stack values left in kernel data structures, though the source states that nothing leaks to the guest. Upgrade to a fixed Linux kernel release for your branch, or to 3.19 or later where the fix is included; the source lists fixed versions 5.10.273, 5.15.224, 6.1.191 and 6.6.160 and their later point releases.
