In\nsystem_call_exception(), check and clear this flag before dispatching\nthe syscall, and return the preset value directly when it is present.\nThis ensures that an explicitly supplied return value always suppresses\nsyscall execution, regardless of the syscall number.\n\nThis handles all seccomp actions correctly:\n\n  - SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO, SECCOMP_RET_TRACE (no tracer), SECCOMP_RET_USER_NOTIF:\n    all call syscall_set_return_value(), flag is set, injected value returned.\n  - SECCOMP_RET_TRAP, SECCOMP_RET_KILL: call syscall_rollback() and deliver\n    a signal; flag is not set, but the process is dying so the return value\n    is irrelevant.\n\nThe fix covers both ppc32 and ppc64 with no #ifdefs.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-09-17T16:08:50.99+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-19T09:01:56.327+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"Linux","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"product\": \"Linux\",\n                    \"vendor\": \"Linux\",\n                    \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\",\n                    \"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\",\n                    \"programFiles\": [\n                        \"arch/powerpc/include/asm/syscall.h\",\n                        \"arch/powerpc/include/asm/thread_info.h\",\n                        \"arch/powerpc/kernel/syscall.c\"\n                    ],\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"bee25f97ad24641df55cb3887eb5bfcb2b9d8fbc\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"19b54740e2e1102c7d48553d9e0347c1f6af22b0\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"git\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"bee25f97ad24641df55cb3887eb5bfcb2b9d8fbc\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"69cb2be898be6d5826cacd1a628f6945a24480b6\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"git\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"},{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"Linux","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"product\": \"Linux\",\n                    \"vendor\": \"Linux\",\n                    \"defaultStatus\": \"affected\",\n                    \"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\",\n                    \"programFiles\": [\n                        \"arch/powerpc/include/asm/syscall.h\",\n                        \"arch/powerpc/include/asm/thread_info.h\",\n                        \"arch/powerpc/kernel/syscall.c\"\n                    ],\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"7.2\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"0\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"7.2\",\n                            \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"7.2.6\",\n                            \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"7.2.*\",\n                            \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"7.3\",\n                            \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"*\",\n                            \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"original_commit_for_fix\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/19b54740e2e1102c7d48553d9e0347c1f6af22b0","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/69cb2be898be6d5826cacd1a628f6945a24480b6"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-90339","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-90339","identifiers":["CVE-2026-90339"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[{"source":"cisa-kev:global","scope":"Complete CISA KEV catalog; all vendors.
