1) Always-Incorrect Control Flow Implementation (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-64003)

CWE-ID: CWE-670 - Always-Incorrect Control Flow Implementation

CVSSv4: 6.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper state handling in scsi_run_host_queues() when processing requeued commands during SCSI host recovery and device removal. A local user can trigger SCSI error recovery and device removal conditions to cause a denial of service.

The issue can leave requeued requests stuck and cause the affected device removal process to hang.
