Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla2xxx: Avoid double completion in async IOCB timeout
qla2x00_async_iocb_timeout() tries to abort a timed-out async IOCB. When
qla24xx_async_abort_cmd() fails, both the SRB_LOGIN_CMD path and the
SRB_CTRL_VP/default path scan outstanding_cmds[] for the SRB and then
call sp->done(sp, QLA_FUNCTION_TIMEOUT) unconditionally, without checking
whether the SRB was actually found and removed.
If the response ISR completes the same handle first, it removes the SRB
under qp_lock_ptr and runs sp->done() -> complete(sp->comp). The
submitter qla24xx_control_vp() wakes from wait_for_completion(), clears
sp->comp, drops its reference and returns, reclaiming the on-stack
completion. The timer reference keeps the SRB alive across the timeout
handler, but not the submitter's stack. The timeout then issues a second
sp->done() -> qla_ctrlvp_sp_done(), which evaluates "if (sp->comp)
complete(sp->comp)"; with the pointer loaded before the submitter's NULL
store, complete() writes into the freed stack frame, a use-after-free.
Track whether this path removed the SRB from outstanding_cmds and only
call sp->done() when it did, so the command is completed exactly once by
whichever path owns it. This mirrors the sp_found guard already used in
qla24xx_abort_iocb_timeout().
