CVE-2026-90293CVE-2026-90293
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
IB/isert: post the full-feature receive buffers after session registration
isert_put_login_tx() posts the full-feature receive buffers before
__transport_register_session() runs, so an initiator that does not wait
for the final Login Response can still have a SCSI command executed
against an se_session whose se_tpg is NULL - the same oops as the
previous patch, at target_submit+0xbe.
Post them from isert_get_rx_pdu(), which the previous patch already uses
to send that response, and post them before that send: the receive queue
is filled at the moment the initiator is told it may use it. Allocating
there keeps the existing property that a memory allocation failure cannot
happen once the final Login Response is on the wire.
The receive queue is already empty between the final Login Request and
isert_post_recvm(); this moves the second point later, from a median of
92 us to 172 us over 1200 logins. Only an initiator
