{"id":"CVE-2026-89862","published":"2026-09-16T11:16:54.237","lastModified":"2026-09-16T11:16:54.237","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nscsi: qla2xxx: Fix BSG job leak on validate flash image error path\n\nqla28xx_validate_flash_image() returns QLA_SUCCESS (0) unconditionally,\ntelling the FC BSG transport (fc_bsg_host_dispatch()) that the driver\nowns and will complete the request. But bsg_job_done() is guarded by \"if\n(!rval)\", so on the error path (rval == -EINVAL) neither the driver nor\nthe transport completes the job. The request dangles until it times out,\nleaking block layer resources.\n\nCommit c2c68225b145 (\"scsi: qla2xxx: Fix bsg_done() causing double\nfree\") added the \"if (!rval)\" guard to a batch of BSG handlers. That is\ncorrect for handlers that also return the error code (the transport then\ncompletes the job once via fail_host_msg), but this function returns\nQLA_SUCCESS unconditionally, so the guard turned a correct single\ncompletion into a leak.\n\nAlways call bsg_job_done(): bsg_reply->result is DID_OK and the error is\nreported in vendor_rsp[0], and since the function returns 0 the\ntransport will not complete the job a second time.","cvssScore":null,"cvssSeverity":null,"cvssVector":null,"cwes":[],"vendors":[],"products":[],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0fb52cc632464b0cd07f970341330466d772efe1","tags":[]},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e25241f9fa01fb0c088381a156d84a725b71c1ef","tags":[]}],"exploitRefs":[],"hasPoc":false,"ai":null}
