Upon failure on the\nVMID allocations, the new code would branch to the 'out' label, which\nreturns NULL without unwinding anything, thus skipping the call to\nscsi_host_put().\n\nFix the problem by creating a separate label 'out_free_vmid' to unwind the\nVMID resources and make the 'out_put_shost' label call only\nscsi_host_put(), as was done before the introduction of allocations for\nVMID.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5ea1f195f51c2bb5915ccfb2b2885ca81ce9262b","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9749595feb33a1a2b848800192224ffeed5346b4","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/dc8e483f684a24cc06e1d5fa958b54db58855093"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:18:08.089039631+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2022-50827","score":0.00235,"percentile":0.14527,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
