Vulnerability in Linux

CVE-2026-74466

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/zcrypt: Close speculative mem read possibility The domain value is extracted from a given CCA or EP11 ioctl struct when a CPRB is about to be sent. Thus this is a user controlled value. Under some special conditions (custom device node used, administrative load) this value is used as an array index after bounds checking, but without speculation barrier. Add the missing array_index_nospec() call to prevent speculative execution where this domain value is used.
