Overview
About vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: ufs: core: Fix handling of lrbp->cmd
ufshcd_queuecommand() may be called two times in a row for a SCSI command before it is completed. Hence make the following changes:
-
In the functions that submit a command, do not check the old value of lrbp->cmd nor clear lrbp->cmd in error paths.
-
In ufshcd_release_scsi_cmd(), do not clear lrbp->cmd.
See also scsi_send_eh_cmnd().
This commit prevents that the following appears if a command times out:
WARNING: at drivers/ufs/core/ufshcd.c:2965 ufshcd_queuecommand+0x6f8/0x9a8 Call trace: ufshcd_queuecommand+0x6f8/0x9a8 scsi_send_eh_cmnd+0x2c0/0x960 scsi_eh_test_devices+0x100/0x314 scsi_eh_ready_devs+0xd90/0x114c scsi_error_handler+0x2b4/0xb70 kthread+0x16c/0x1e0
