Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-09-16 11:17 - Updated: 2026-09-16 15:18

Severity

7.8 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: bsg: Fix TOCTOU in io_uring passthrough command setup scsi_bsg_uring_cmd() reads bsg_uring_cmd from the shared mmap'd SQE. Userspace can change a field after we check it and before we use it. request_len is the sharp case: it can grow past sizeof(scmd->cmnd) after the bound check and overflow scmd->cmnd in copy_from_user(). READ_ONCE() the SQE fields we check or use into locals before use.

The inline issue path never copies the SQE first, and scsi_alloc_request() sits between the bound check and copy_from_user, making the race attacker-driven and retryable.\nPR:L - bsg_open() has no capability check; access is only DAC on /dev/bsg/* for ordinary SCSI devices. scsi_cmd_allowed() runs after the overflow. Disk/cdrom group membership and uaccess on removable SCSI/USB devices grant this to unprivileged local users without init-namespace root.\nUI:N - The attacker opens the BSG node, creates an io_uring ring with SQE128/CQE32, and submits the racing passthrough command themselves; no victim action is required.\nS:U - The overflow corrupts the blk-mq scsi_cmnd PDU and adjacent kernel heap in the same host kernel security authority, enabling local privilege escalation rather than a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary crossing.\nC:H - copy_from_user() overflows the 32-byte scmd-\u003ecmnd into scsi_cmnd pointer fields (sdb, sense_buffer, host_scribble) and adjacent heap with attacker-controlled bytes, which can be groomed into kernel memory disclosure.\nI:H - The same attacker-controlled heap overflow overwrites kernel pointers and adjacent blk-mq request objects, providing a write primitive exploitable for control-flow hijacking and privilege escalation.\nA:H - A large request_len smash or later use of corrupted scsi_cmnd pointers causes a kernel oops or panic; even a failed copy_from_user still writes through kernel memory until a fault, then frees the corrupted request."
