      <title>CVE-2025-40001 — scsi: mvsas: Fix use-after-free bugs in mvs_work_queue</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2025-40001</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;scsi: mvsas: Fix use-after-free bugs in mvs_work_queue&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;During the detaching of Marvell&amp;#39;s SAS/SATA controller, the original code
calls cancel_delayed_work() in mvs_free() to cancel the delayed work
item mwq-&amp;gt;work_q. However, if mwq-&amp;gt;work_q is already running, the
cancel_delayed_work() may fail to cancel it. This can lead to
use-after-free scenarios where mvs_free() frees the mvs_info while
mvs_work_queue() is still executing and attempts to access the
already-freed mvs_info.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A typical race condition is illustrated below:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;CPU 0 (remove)            | CPU 1 (delayed work callback)
mvs_pci_remove()          |
  mvs_free()              | mvs_work_queue()
    cancel_delayed_work() |
      kfree(mvi)          |
                          |   mvi-&amp;gt; // UAF&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Replace cancel_delayed_work() with cancel_delayed_work_sync() to ensure
that the delayed work item is properly canceled and any executing
delayed work item completes before the mvs_info is deallocated.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This bug was found by static analysis.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
