CVE-2024-45026

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue is related to the dasd ese needs format function in the Linux kernel, which checks for error codes signaling the non-existence of a proper track format. The check for incorrect length is imprecise, leading to potential data corruption in certain error cases, such as during a storage server warmstart. The fix involves removing the check for incorrect length and replacing it with an explicit check for invalid track format in transport mode. Additionally, the check for file protected is removed as it is not a valid ESE handling case.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
