The same path is exported to other network fabrics (isert/RDMA, cxgbit).\nAC:L - The attacker fully controls both halves: an ABORT_TASK with a bogus RefTaskTag and out-of-window RefCmdSN parks a stale entry on dev_tmr_list, and an immediate-flagged LUN_RESET (which bypasses CmdSN sequencing) then walks that list. Using an out-of-order CmdSN keeps the stale entry alive indefinitely, so no race window has to be won.\nPR:N - Only an iSCSI session in full-feature phase is needed, and iSCSI login is unauthenticated in the standard SAN deployment (CHAP disabled, or generate_node_acls=1 demo mode) where the only \"credential\" is a plaintext IQN string that is discoverable via SendTargets and trivially spoofed.\nUI:N - The attacker sends two TMF PDUs on their own connection; no action by any administrator, initiator host, or local user is required.\nS:U - The deadlock is confined to the kernel's own target-core subsystem and its worker threads, with no crossing into a different security authority such as a hypervisor or IOMMU boundary.\nC:N - The defect is an unbalanced completion wait on a TMR that never entered target core; no memory is read out of bounds and no kernel data is disclosed to the initiator.\nI:N - Nothing is written out of bounds and no freed object is reused — the reference count is held too long rather than dropped too early, so there is no corruption or control-flow primitive.\nA:H - The target_tmr_work kworker blocks forever in target_put_cmd_and_wait() and the iSCSI thread loops indefinitely in __transport_wait_for_tasks(), leaving unkillable D-state threads, a permanently pinned lun_ref that prevents LUN/device teardown, and a wedged storage target that only a reboot recovers; the hung-task detector can also panic the box."
