Hello Nic, In transport_generic_new_cmd(), called from iscsit_process_scsi_cmd() to submit an iSCSI command to the LIO core, one can see that target_alloc_sgls() is called whether or not SCF_SCSI_DATA_CDB has been set. So I don't think that what you wrote in the patch description is correct. If you have a look at my v2 patch series you will see that the buffer overflow I reported can be triggered for any SCSI command and not just for VERIFY / WRITE AND VERIFY. All that's needed to trigger a buffer overflow with the iSCSI target driver is to send about 4 * PAGE_SIZE bytes more immediate data than the Data-Out buffer size specified through the CDB.
