Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: lpfc: Check for hdwq null ptr when cleaning up lpfc_vport structure If a call to lpfc_sli4_read_rev() from lpfc_sli4_hba_setup() fails, the resultant cleanup routine lpfc_sli4_vport_delete_fcp_xri_aborted() may occur before sli4_hba.hdwqs are allocated. This may result in a null pointer dereference when attempting to take the abts_io_buf_list_lock for the first hardware queue. Fix by adding a null ptr check on phba->sli4_hba.hdwq and early return because this situation means there must have been an error during port initialization.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 5.1 < 5.4.297) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.5 < 5.10.241) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.11 < 5.15.190) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.16 < 6.1.149) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.2 < 6.6.103) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.12.43) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.13 < 6.15.11) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.16 < 6.16.2) • debian debian linux 11.0
