high Nessus Plugin ID 225133

Language:

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

 - scsi: pm8001: Fix abort all task initialization In pm80xx_send_abort_all(), the n_elem field of the ccb used is not initialized to 0. This missing initialization sometimes lead to the task completion path seeing the ccb with a non-zero n_elem resulting in the execution of invalid dma_unmap_sg() calls in pm8001_ccb_task_free(), causing a crash such as: [ 197.676341] RIP: 0010:iommu_dma_unmap_sg+0x6d/0x280 [ 197.700204] RSP: 0018:ffff889bbcf89c88 EFLAGS: 00010012 [ 197.705485] RAX: dffffc0000000000 RBX:
