LIN1025-1003 : Security Advisory - linux - CVE-2023-53116

Created: May 5, 2025    Updated: Sep 1, 2025
Resolved Date: May 6, 2025
Found In Version: 10.25.33.1
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 25
Component/s: Kernel

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nvmet: avoid potential UAF in nvmet_req_complete()

An nvme target ->queue_response() operation implementation may free the
request passed as argument. Such implementation potentially could result
in a use after free of the request pointer when percpu_ref_put() is
called in nvmet_req_complete().

Avoid such problem by using a local variable to save the sq pointer
before calling __nvmet_req_complete(), thus avoiding dereferencing the
req pointer after that function call.
