{"cve":"CVE-2026-89846","nvd":{"published":"2026-09-16T11:16:51.853","modified":"2026-10-19T09:18:28.607","status":"Received","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nscsi: qla2xxx: Bound rsp_info_len to avoid OOB sense-data read\n\nIn qla2x00_status_entry(), the FWI2 status path advances sense_data and\nshrinks par_sense_len by rsp_info_len:\n\n\tif (IS_FWI2_CAPABLE(ha)) {\n\t\tsense_data += rsp_info_len;\n\t\tpar_sense_len -= rsp_info_len;\n\t}\n\nrsp_info_len is a 32-bit value taken directly from the target's FCP\nresponse (sf.rsp_data_len), while par_sense_len is the IOCB data area\nsize (28 bytes for 24xx, 60 bytes for 29xx). A hostile or buggy target\nreporting an rsp_info_len larger than par_sense_len makes the unsigned\nsubtraction underflow to a huge value and advances sense_data out of\nbounds.\n\nThe underflowed par_sense_len then defeats the cap in\nqla2x00_handle_sense():\n\n\tif (sense_len > par_sense_len)\n\t\tsense_len = par_sense_len;\n\tmemcpy(cp->sense_buffer, sense_data, sense_len);\n\nso the memcpy reads up to SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE bytes from the\nout-of-bounds sense_data pointer, leaking adjacent response-ring/heap\nmemory into the command's sense buffer.\n\nClamp rsp_info_len to par_sense_len before the subtraction so\npar_sense_len can never underflow and sense_data stays within the IOCB\ndata area. The fix sits before the comp_status switch, covering both\nqla2x00_handle_sense() call sites.","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:N/A:H","score":9.1},"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/125b12861c726e58448bb95d55b04851fb131d1f","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6b08c0cb110a1fba92f99d655020198489699815","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/be75ab791c9b3baca66c70ce03443afebc83acda","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ca6d880d6c70cb7946e7b3e05d7285f271b6d99e","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d7f7746ff031ae45724881261804f4bf5317c985"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:54:41.405518556+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-89846","score":0.00714,"percentile":0.53397,"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).
