This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled scsi: pm8001: Fix use-after-free for aborted TMF sas_task to the 5.10-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-pm8001-fix-use-after-free-for-aborted-tmf-sas_t.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 563570d9592eff821496d7c23003d91ba7d27cd9 Author: John Garry <john.garry@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Jan 27 21:12:51 2022 +0800 scsi: pm8001: Fix use-after-free for aborted TMF sas_task [ Upstream commit 61f162aa4381845acbdc7f2be4dfb694d027c018 ] Currently a use-after-free may occur if a TMF sas_task is aborted before we handle the IO completion in mpi_ssp_completion(). The abort occurs due to timeout. When the timeout occurs, the SAS_TASK_STATE_ABORTED flag is set and the sas_task is freed in pm8001_exec_internal_tmf_task(). However, if the I/O completion occurs later, the I/O completion still thinks that the sas_task is available. Fix this by clearing the ccb->task if the TMF times out - the I/O completion handler does nothing if this pointer is cleared.
