arch/s390/kernel/head64.S in the Linux kernel before 3.13.5 on the s390 platform does not properly handle attempted use of the linkage stack, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) by executing a crafted instruction.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a Linux kernel crash bug limited to the s390 platform. A local user could trigger a system crash on affected kernels before 3.13.5. It is primarily an availability risk, not a data theft or remote compromise issue based on the supplied sources. Exposure is likely limited to IBM s390 Linux systems running kernels before 3.13.5 or vendor kernels without the relevant backport. Systems require local user access or local code execution to be affected. Treat as a targeted availability issue for legacy or mainframe Linux environments. It should be remediated during normal kernel maintenance unless affected s390 systems support untrusted local users or critical services. Mitigation focus: Identify any Linux s390 systems and their running kernel versions.; Upgrade to Linux 3.13.5 or a vendor kernel containing the upstream fix.; Review Oracle, Red Hat, or distribution advisories for backported package names..
