However, the\niSCSI target doesn't trigger the completion process for these aborted\ncommands. Because of this, the abort path hangs indefinitely in\ntarget_put_cmd_and_wait(), leading to a deadlocked target worker thread.\n\nFix this by explicitly calling target_complete_cmd() when the final\ndataout PDU is received for an aborted WRITE command.\ntarget_complete_cmd() detects the CMD_T_ABORTED flag and cleanly routes\nthe command into target_abort_work, allowing the abort completion to\nsuccessfully unblock.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/19315262991dc983cc5c5c2ed24ff768abbf9339","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/37f7f54d06c6100511979d6e9c1222b404e3f006","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/638cf7c0cf64d5bb5704c3a78b54ae6602f69a32","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9c777f8e0cb0486fdf16db8ffea32e562a31e85b","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b070c8b4b237d55bdac13da3c5a994491177b312"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:56:02.509636177+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-97951","score":0.00177,"percentile":0.07154,"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).
