NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-rt-livepatch-devel package and not the kernel-rt-livepatch-devel package as distributed by SLES.

In the Linux kernel through 5.2.1 on the powerpc platform, when hardware transactional memory is disabled, a local user can cause a denial of service (TM Bad Thing exception and system crash) via a sigreturn() system call that sends a crafted signal frame. This affects arch/powerpc/kernel/signal_32.c and arch/powerpc/kernel/signal_64.c.
