CVE-2026-97589CVE-2026-97589
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/crypto: Fix wrong return code to engine in asynch callbacks
When crypto_finalize_hash_request() or
crypto_finalize_skcipher_request() explicitly completes a request, the
do_one_request callback must return 0 to indicate successful
handling. Returning a negative error code causes the crypto engine to
assume the driver failed to take ownership and triggers a second
completion via crypto_request_complete(), resulting in a double
completion. This pattern occurs in paes_s390.c 4 times and once in
phmac_s390.c.
Fixed in phmac_do_one_request() and all four paes do_one_request
callbacks (ecb, cbc, ctr, xts) by returning 0 after explicit
finalization instead of propagating the error code.
