Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: ses: Handle enclosure with just a primary component gracefully This reverts commit 3fe97ff3d949 ("scsi: ses: Don't attach if enclosure has no components") and introduces proper handling of case where there are no detected secondary components, but primary component (enumerated in num_enclosures) does exist. That fix was originally proposed by Ding Hui <dinghui@sangfor.com.cn>. Completely ignoring devices that have one primary enclosure and no secondary one results in ses_intf_add() bailing completely scsi 2:0:0:254: enclosure has no enumerated components scsi 2:0:0:254: Failed to bind enclosure -12ven in valid configurations such even on valid configurations with 1 primary and 0 secondary enclosures as below: # sg_ses /dev/sg0 3PARdata SES 3321 Supported diagnostic pages: Supported Diagnostic Pages [sdp] [0x0] Configuration (SES) [cf] [0x1] Short Enclosure Status (SES)
