CVE-2026-90293

/// Technical 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

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
