[PATCH] scsi: vmw_pscsi: Fix use-after-free in pvscsi_queue_lck()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Once we unlock adapter->hw_lock in pvscsi_queue_lck() nothing prevents just
queued scsi_cmnd from completing and freeing the request. Thus cmd->cmnd[0]
dereference can dereference already freed request leading to kernel crashes or
other issues (which one of our customers observed). Store cmd->cmnd[0] in a
local variable before unlocking adapter->hw_lock to fix the issue.
