Exploitation requires local access to drive I/O and groom the kernel heap on the affected host.\nAC:L - The dangling flush_rq pointer is left in the host-wide tags->rqs[] deterministically after any SCSI LUN teardown, and the attacker can drive both sides of the consuming window by keeping heavy I/O on the remaining LUNs of the same SCSI host (forcing timeout/EH tag iteration) while spraying the freed kmalloc slab. No condition depends on state the attacker cannot influence.\nPR:L - An unprivileged local user can supply every attacker-controlled element — issuing flushes via fsync on a mounted SCSI disk to plant flush_rq in the shared tag array, driving I/O that forces tag iteration, and spraying the generic kmalloc cache to reclaim the freed request; the teardown itself is a routine event (USB/SAN/virtio-scsi hotplug, path loss) rather than an attacker-only capability.\nUI:N - No victim action such as opening a file or mounting a filesystem is required; the use-after-free fires from kernel worker context (blk_mq_timeout_work, SCSI error handling) as ordinary I/O proceeds.\nS:U - The corrupted memory and the impact both reside in the kernel's own security authority; there is no crossing of a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\nC:H - The freed struct request lives in a generic kmalloc cache that an unprivileged attacker can reclaim with controlled data, and the tag iterator reads fields (rq->tag, rq->q, rq->mq_hctx, rq->state) from it, allowing the attacker to steer subsequent dereferences into arbitrary kernel memory and disclose its contents.\nI:H - Beyond reading, req_ref_inc_not_zero() performs an atomic increment into the freed object, and blk_mq_put_rq_ref() can invoke flush_end_io() on it, which walks fq->flush_queue lists and calls completion callbacks derived from attacker-groomable memory — a write and control-flow hijack primitive.\nA:H - The use-after-free reliably produces a KASAN slab-use-after-free/oops in blk_mq_find_and_get_req() from the kblockd worker, and unconstrained follow-on dereferences of the freed request cause kernel panics, taking down the storage stack and the system." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor":
