CVSS 3.1
5.5 mediumCVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:HCVE-2023-53464
Medium (5.5) in linux linux kernel. EPSS 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: iscsi_tcp: Check that sock is valid before iscsi_set_param()
The validity of sock should be checked before assignment to avoid incorrect
values. Commit 57569c37f0ad ("scsi: iscsi: iscsi_tcp: Fix null-ptr-deref
while calling getpeername()") introduced this change which may lead to
inconsistent values of tcp_sw_conn->sendpage and conn->datadgst_en.
Fix the issue by moving the position of the assignment.
