{"cve":"CVE-2026-64103","nvd":{"published":"2026-07-19T16:17:51.533","modified":"2026-08-12T15:49:19.403","status":"Analyzed","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nscsi: isci: Fix use-after-free in device removal path\n\nThe ISCI completion tasklet is initialized in isci_host_alloc()\n(drivers/scsi/isci/init.c:496) and scheduled from both MSI-X and legacy\ninterrupt handlers (drivers/scsi/isci/host.c:223,613).\n\nisci_host_deinit() stops the controller and waits for stop completion,\nbut it never kills completion_tasklet before teardown continues. A\ntop-of-function tasklet_kill() is not sufficient here: interrupts are\nonly disabled when isci_host_stop_complete() runs, so until\nwait_for_stop() returns the IRQ handlers can still requeue the\ntasklet. The tasklet callback also re-enables interrupts after draining\ncompletions, so killing the tasklet before the source is quiesced leaves\nthe same race open.\n\nOnce wait_for_stop() returns, no further IRQ-driven scheduling can\noccur. Kill completion_tasklet there so teardown cannot race a queued\ntasklet running on a dead ihost. On remove or unload, the stale callback\ncan otherwise dereference ihost and touch ihost->smu_registers after the\nhost lifetime ends.\n\nA UML + KASAN analogue reproduced the failure class both with no\ntasklet_kill() and with tasklet_kill() placed before source quiesce, and\nstayed clean once the kill happened after quiescing the scheduling\nsource.\n\nThis mirrors commit f6ab594672d4 (\"scsi: aic94xx: fix use-after-free in\ndevice removal path\"), but ISCI needs the kill after wait_for_stop().","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.8},"cwes":["CWE-416"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1412995e10c74644b47f242aea6e4f3d4180e806","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/309c6058622d080fe8c2fab87c30da82d834d989","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6d40f2f103bb30f52f3dbadbe2c3fdf274a9763c","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a83d3e4daba40d49324cec1c51ed261e1ea48cf1","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ab2266601a875982f2d2033f41e070a6d5e615e2"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:45:36.895656543+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-64103","score":0.00126,"percentile":0.02229,"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).
