Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: lpfc: Fix list_add() corruption in lpfc_drain_txq()
When parsing the txq list in lpfc_drain_txq(), the driver attempts to pass
the requests to the adapter. If such an attempt fails, a local "fail_msg"
string is set and a log message output. The job is then added to a
completions list for cancellation.
Processing of any further jobs from the txq list continues, but since
"fail_msg" remains set, jobs are added to the completions list regardless
of whether a wqe was passed to the adapter. If successfully added to
txcmplq, jobs are added to both lists resulting in list corruption.
Fix by clearing the fail_msg string after adding a job to the completions
list. This stops the subsequent jobs from being added to the completions
list unless they had an appropriate failure.
A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel while parsing the txq list in the lpfc_drain_txq() function. Due to improper handling of a local fail message string which is set when a job fails and is never unset for subsequent jobs, this issue can lead to list corruption as jobs may be added to both the txq and the completions list. This could result in system instability or inconsistencies.
Отчет
This issue is fixed in RHEL-8.6 and above (including 8.10):
