Descripci\u00f3n del problema: nvmet_req_init() llama internamente a __nvmet_req_complete() en caso de fallo (p. ej., un c\u00f3digo de operaci\u00f3n no compatible, que llama a la devoluci\u00f3n de llamada \"queue_response\"). Esto provoca la llamada a nvmet_pci_epf_queue_response(), que a su vez llama a nvmet_pci_epf_complete_iod() si data_len es 0 o si dma_dir es diferente de DMA_TO_DEVICE. Esto genera una doble finalizaci\u00f3n, ya que nvmet_pci_epf_exec_iod_work() tambi\u00e9n llama a nvmet_pci_epf_complete_iod() cuando falla nvmet_req_init(). Pasos para reproducir: En el host, env\u00ede un comando con un c\u00f3digo de operaci\u00f3n no compatible con nvme-cli. Por ejemplo, el comando de administrador \"security receive\": $ sudo nvme security-recv /dev/nvme0n1 -n1 -x4096. Esto activa una doble finalizaci\u00f3n, ya que nvmet_req_init() falla y se llama a nvmet_pci_epf_queue_response(). En este caso, iod->dma_dir a\u00fan se encuentra en el estado predeterminado \"DMA_NONE\", tal como se establece por defecto en nvmet_pci_epf_alloc_iod(), por lo que se llama a nvmet_pci_epf_complete_iod(). Debido a que nvmet_req_init() fall\u00f3, nvmet_pci_epf_complete_iod() tambi\u00e9n se llama en nvmet_pci_epf_exec_iod_work(), lo que provoca una doble finalizaci\u00f3n. Esto no solo env\u00eda dos finalizaciones al host, sino que tambi\u00e9n corrompe el estado del destino PCI NVMe, lo que provoca errores del kernel. Este parche permite que nvmet_req_init() y req->execute() completen todos los comandos fallidos y elimina el caso de doble finalizaci\u00f3n en nvmet_pci_epf_exec_iod_work(), corrigiendo as\u00ed los casos extremos donde se produc\u00edan dobles finalizaciones."}], "id": "CVE-2025-38658", "lastModified": "2026-06-17T09:17:19.183", "metrics": {"cvssMetricV31": [{"cvssData": {"attackComplexity": "LOW", "attackVector": "LOCAL", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 5.5, "baseSeverity": "MEDIUM", "confidentialityImpact": "NONE", "integrityImpact": "NONE", "privilegesRequired": "LOW", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "userInteraction": "NONE", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H", "version": "3.1"}, "exploitabilityScore": 1.8, "impactScore": 3.6, "source": "[email protected]", "type": "Primary"}]}, "published": "2025-08-22T16:15:40.907", "references": [{"source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/746d0ac5a07d5da952ef258dd4d75f0b26c96476"}, {"source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a535c0b10060bc8c174a7964b0f98064ee0c4774"}], "sourceIdentifier": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "vulnStatus": "Analyzed", "weaknesses": [{"description": [{"lang": "en", "value": "CWE-908"}], "source": "[email protected]", "type": "Primary"}]}
