In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Clear cmds after chip reset Commit aefed3e5548f ("scsi: qla2xxx: target: Fix offline port handling and host reset handling") caused two problems:
- Commands sent to FW, after chip reset got stuck and never freed as FW is not going to respond to them anymore.
- BUG_ON(cmd->sg_mapped) in qlt_free_cmd(). Commit 26f9ce53817a
("scsi: qla2xxx: Fix missed DMA unmap for aborted commands")
attempted to fix this, but introduced another bug under different
circumstances when two different CPUs were racing to call
qlt_unmap_sg() at the same time: BUG_ON(!valid_dma_direction(dir)) in
dma_unmap_sg_attrs().
So revert "scsi: qla2xxx: Fix missed DMA unmap for aborted commands" and
partially revert "scsi: qla2xxx: target: Fix offline port handling and
host reset handling" at __qla2x00_abort_all_cmds.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's qla2xxx SCSI driver. This vulnerability occurs when commands sent to the firmware (FW) are not properly cleared after a chip reset. A local attacker could exploit a race condition during direct memory access (DMA) unmapping, leading to a kernel panic. This can result in a system crash and a Denial of Service (DoS).
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, if the qla2xxx SCSI driver is not required, it can be prevented from loading by blacklisting the module. This can be achieved by creating a modprobe configuration file.
- Create a file named
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-qla2xxx.confwith the following content:
- Rebuild the initial ramdisk:
- Reboot the system for the changes to take effect.
This mitigation will prevent the
qla2xxxmodule from loading, which may impact systems relying on QLogic Fibre Channel HBAs. A system reboot is required for the changes to take full effect.
