description
The Linux kernel iSER target path can access freed connection memory when deferred control-PDU completion work overlaps connection teardown. An attacker able to interact with an affected iSER/iSCSI target may trigger the race during connection closure.
mitigation
Update to a kernel release containing the upstream iSER connection-teardown synchronization fix. Until then, disable or restrict access to the iSER/iSCSI target service where it is not required.
fixed in f5613acbe2e346d5c466ef0bd264fca936b69f82, ccdb1523f12bc8a9646de65055d1aafed9e9bcc6, 0e230917670c6e6fe3243abfa11299fcbe05b1f4, 505b242d9351690d1385bbe508ab4666f60363ce, 7edb8a88d6c76237c8b4435765bee1009e26a50a, b96b8b3e41c308f606ffd10cfef1a7b9f97414cd, 7908fbc597a694bbd99bfb59ece73bc3daded68e, a8fe3dfce8c0d8a76dc3d8486a5bff5feebe156f
outcome
Contextual: an exploit technique exists, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
