But bsg_job_done() is guarded by \"if\n(!rval)\", so on the error path (rval == -EINVAL) neither the driver nor\nthe transport completes the job. The request dangles until it times out,\nleaking block layer resources.\n\nCommit c2c68225b145 (\"scsi: qla2xxx: Fix bsg_done() causing double\nfree\") added the \"if (!rval)\" guard to a batch of BSG handlers. That is\ncorrect for handlers that also return the error code (the transport then\ncompletes the job once via fail_host_msg), but this function returns\nQLA_SUCCESS unconditionally, so the guard turned a correct single\ncompletion into a leak.\n\nAlways call bsg_job_done(): bsg_reply->result is DID_OK and the error is\nreported in vendor_rsp[0], and since the function returns 0 the\ntransport will not complete the job a second time."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_bsg.c"],"versions":[{"version":"c2c68225b1456f4d0d393b5a8778d51bb0d5b1d0","lessThan":"e25241f9fa01fb0c088381a156d84a725b71c1ef","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"c2c68225b1456f4d0d393b5a8778d51bb0d5b1d0","lessThan":"0fb52cc632464b0cd07f970341330466d772efe1","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"057a5bdc481e58ab853117254867ffb22caf9f6e","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"f2bbb4db0e4a4fbd5e649c0b5d8733f61da24720","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"27ac9679c43a09e54e2d9aae9980ada045b428e0","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"74e7458537cd9349cf019862e51491f670871707","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"871f6236da96c4a9712b8a29d7f555f767a47e95","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"31f33b856d2324d86bcaef295f4d210477a1c018","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"708003e1bc857dd014d4c44278d7d77c26f91b1c","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"5.10.251","lessThan":"5.11","status":"affected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.15.201","lessThan":"5.16","status":"affected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.164","lessThan":"6.2","status":"affected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.127","lessThan":"6.7","status":"affected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.74","lessThan":"6.13","status":"affected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.13","lessThan":"6.19","status":"affected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.19.3","lessThan":"6.20","status":"affected","versionType":"semver"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_bsg.c"],"versions":[{"version":"7.0","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"7.0","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2.5","lessThanOrEqual":"7.2.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.3-rc1","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"7.0","versionEndExcluding":"7.2.5"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"7.0","versionEndExcluding":"7.3-rc1"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.10.251"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.15.201"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.1.164"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.6.127"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.12.74"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.18.13"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.19.3"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e25241f9fa01fb0c088381a156d84a725b71c1ef"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0fb52cc632464b0cd07f970341330466d772efe1"}],"title":"scsi: qla2xxx: Fix BSG job leak on validate flash image error path","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
