This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled scsi: iscsi: Don't send data to unbound connection to the 4.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: scsi-iscsi-don-t-send-data-to-unbound-connection.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 65ee33ccc828ec4f2a767b7235eaf16a15630c1a Author: Anatol Pomazau <anatol@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Nov 15 19:47:35 2019 -0500 scsi: iscsi: Don't send data to unbound connection [ Upstream commit 238191d65d7217982d69e21c1d623616da34b281 ] If a faulty initiator fails to bind the socket to the iSCSI connection before emitting a command, for instance, a subsequent send_pdu, it will crash the kernel due to a null pointer dereference in sock_sendmsg(), as shown in the log below. This patch makes sure the bind succeeded before trying to use the socket.
