No severity ratings or metrics are available. When they are, we'll update the corresponding info on the page.
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 6.1.133
Description
The Linux kernel contained a flaw related to SCSI operations and the qla2xxx driver. A reverted commit introduced a condition where code within
qla2x00 abort all cmds() could call a function without holding a necessary spinlock, leading to a potential null pointer dereference in target mode. Subsequent code added a spinlock, but the original issue remained due to redundant and buggy code. This could result in a kernel crash, as indicated by a 'BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference' message.Recommendations
Update to version 6.1.133 or later.
