FC is a non-routable fabric, so Adjacent is the highest defensible vector.\nAC:H - A fabric peer can reliably arm the bug by sending Purex/ABTS so default_item stays on purex_list (especially when LOOP_READY is false or UNLOADING prevents DPC drain), but the invalid kfree only runs in qla24xx_free_purex_list during qla2x00_free_device, which requires device/module removal beyond the fabric attacker\u2019s control.\nPR:N - Purex/ABTS/FPIN delivery and queuing are driven by unauthenticated FC frames from a fabric peer in the host driver\u2019s ISR path, with no Linux credentials or capabilities required on the victim host.\nUI:N - No victim user action such as mounting a filesystem or opening a device is required; fabric peers emit ELS/ABTS in normal SAN operation, and teardown that frees the list occurs during routine driver remove without interactive user content handling.\nS:U - Impact remains within the host kernel authority that owns the qla2xxx driver (slab freelist corruption and crash); this is not a VM escape, IOMMU bypass, or other cross-boundary scope change.\nC:H - kfree of the embedded default_item (mid-object pointer inside scsi_host private data) is an invalid free that corrupts the slab freelist, which can be leveraged for arbitrary kernel memory disclosure via heap reuse.\nI:H - The same invalid-free slab corruption enables heap spraying and control-flow/integrity compromise once the corrupted freelist is reused, as evidenced by subsequent allocation crashes during reprobe after unload.\nA:H - KASAN reports invalid free in qla2x00_free_device and the system oopses/panics on later allocations (e.g. blk_mq during qla2x00_probe_one), which is a full kernel availability loss."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_os.c"], "versions": [{"version": "62e9dd177732843ae6c5b9d2ed61e7c9538fa276", "lessThan": "9b7eb92dac240ab3bc83e188d83a3df834b41eb2", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "62e9dd177732843ae6c5b9d2ed61e7c9538fa276", "lessThan": "213e57b42537f1a2e5395caa9d7189854133ed12", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "62e9dd177732843ae6c5b9d2ed61e7c9538fa276", "lessThan": "67f744f73eba870ab96411d0310e831a4adc3713", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "62e9dd177732843ae6c5b9d2ed61e7c9538fa276", "lessThan": "0972252450f90db56dd5415a20e2aec21a08d036", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}]}, {"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_os.c"], "versions": [{"version": "5.9", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "5.9", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "5.15.54", "lessThanOrEqual": "5.15.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "5.16.19", "lessThanOrEqual": "5.16.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "5.17.2", "lessThanOrEqual": "5.17.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "5.18", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix"}]}], "cpeApplicability": [{"nodes": [{"operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.9", "versionEndExcluding": "5.15.54"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.9", "versionEndExcluding": "5.16.19"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.9", "versionEndExcluding": "5.17.2"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.9", "versionEndExcluding": "5.18"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9b7eb92dac240ab3bc83e188d83a3df834b41eb2"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/213e57b42537f1a2e5395caa9d7189854133ed12"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/67f744f73eba870ab96411d0310e831a4adc3713"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0972252450f90db56dd5415a20e2aec21a08d036"}], "title": "scsi: qla2xxx: Fix crash during module load unload test", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
