Summary

In the Linux kernel SCSI subsystem, a vulnerability was found where scsi_run_host_queues() failed to run queues for devices in SDEV_CANCEL state, potentially causing the device removal process to hang. The issue stems from using the shost_for_each_device() macro which skips devices being removed, leaving requeued requests unhandled.

Risk Assessment

The risk involves possible system hangs or stalled SCSI device removal, leading to storage unavailability and potential data loss in server environments.

Recommendation

Immediately update the Linux kernel to a version containing the fix that modifies scsi_run_host_queues() to run queues for all devices except those in SDEV_DEL state.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: core: Run queues for all non-SDEV_DEL devices from scsi_run_host_queues While a SCSI host is in a recovery state, scsi_mq_requeue_cmd() will not set the requeue list for a requeued command to be kicked in the future. The expectation is a call to scsi_run_host_queues() will kick all SCSI devices once the recovery state is cleared. However, scsi_run_host_queues() uses shost_for_each_device() which uses scsi_device_get() and so will ignore devices in a partially removed state like SDEV_CANCEL. But these devices may also have requeued requests, leaving their requests stuck from not being kicked and causing the removal process of the device to hang. scsi_run_host_queues() needs to run against more devices than the macro shost_for_each_device() allows. Instead of using the too limiting scsi_device_get() state checks, only ignore devices in SDEV_DEL state or when unable to acquire a reference. Attempt to run the queues for all other devices when scsi_run_host_queues() is called.
