Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-98357)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: 5.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/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 a use-after-free in the Linux kernel iSER target's deferred control PDU completion handling when queued completion work executes after connection teardown has freed the connection objects. A local user can trigger connection teardown while control PDU completions remain queued to cause a denial of service.

The affected completion states are ISTATE_SEND_TASKMGTRSP, ISTATE_SEND_REJECT and ISTATE_SEND_TEXTRSP. ISTATE_SEND_LOGOUTRSP follows a separate logout wait path.
