CVE-2026-89860
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla2xxx: Initialize NVMe abort_work once at submission
qla_nvme_fcp_abort() and qla_nvme_ls_abort() ran INIT_WORK() on priv->abort_work immediately before schedule_work(). INIT_WORK() reinitializes the work_struct, resetting its list head and clearing the pending bit. If an abort is issued more than once for the same command (for example, concurrent transport teardown and a timeout-driven abort), the second INIT_WORK() reinitializes a work item that is already queued, which can corrupt the workqueue list and lead to crashes or a looping worker.

Initialize priv->abort_work once at command submission, next to the existing per-command spin_lock_init(&priv->cmd_lock), and leave only schedule_work() in the abort paths. schedule_work() already does nothing when the work item is still pending, so a repeated abort no longer disturbs an in-flight work item. The command is not returned to the transport until the final kref_put()/release callback runs after abort_work has completed, so the work item is idle before priv is reused and the single submission-time INIT_WORK() is safe.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 8.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.40%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 32
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
