{"cve":"CVE-2026-72083","nvd":{"published":"2026-08-15T06:21:20.167","modified":"2026-10-19T22:17:26.240","status":"Received","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nscsi: target: core: Fix iSCSI ISID use-after-free in REGISTER AND MOVE\n\ncore_scsi3_emulate_pro_register_and_move() maps the PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT\nparameter list with transport_kmap_data_sg() and parses the destination\nTransportID with target_parse_pr_out_transport_id(). For an iSCSI\nTransportID (FORMAT CODE 01b), iscsi_parse_pr_out_transport_id() returns\nthe ISID in iport_ptr as a raw pointer into that mapped buffer.\n\nThe function then unmaps the buffer with transport_kunmap_data_sg() before\ndereferencing iport_ptr in strcmp(), __core_scsi3_locate_pr_reg() and\ncore_scsi3_alloc_registration(). When the parameter list spans more than\none page (PARAMETER LIST LENGTH > 4096), transport_kmap_data_sg() uses\nvmap() and transport_kunmap_data_sg() does vunmap(), so the kernel virtual\naddress backing iport_ptr is torn down and every subsequent dereference is\na use-after-free read of the unmapped region.\n\nKeep the parameter list mapped until iport_ptr is no longer needed: drop\nthe early transport_kunmap_data_sg() and unmap once on the success path,\nright before returning. The error paths already unmap through the existing\n\"if (buf) transport_kunmap_data_sg(cmd)\" at the out: label, which now runs\non every post-map error exit because buf is no longer cleared early. Only\nreads of the mapping happen while spinlocks are held; the map and unmap\ncalls remain outside any lock. The sibling caller\ncore_scsi3_decode_spec_i_port() already uses the buffer before unmapping it\nand is left unchanged.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":9.8},"cwes":["CWE-416"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/05b3e37433cf2eaf8867f1c16528aa347bb212ab","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/59a2a5a37dc49a641ad6bc64aee34e5a61025ffd","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7d56f5c868d92c9d504a34a3ea450bce481c7f63","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9f8076cc73dfa6b10155978c160587e986b22169","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a040004846f1fbe687f6ec76d9ccc27b4ead42e4"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-21T03:56:58.798400159+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-72083","score":0.00724,"percentile":0.53776,"date":"2026-10-25"},"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).
