In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

scsi: ufs: core: Fix ufshcdabortone racing issue

When ufshcdabortone is racing with the completion ISR, the completed tag of the request's mqhctx pointer will be set to NULL by ISR. Return success when request is completed by ISR because ufshcdabortone does not need to do anything.

The racing flow is:

Thread A ufshcderrhandler step 1 ... ufshcdabortone ufshcdtrytoaborttask ufshcdcmdinflight(true) step 3 ufshcdmcqreqtohwq blkmquniquetag rq->mqhctx->queuenum step 5

Thread B ufsmtkmcqintr(cq complete ISR) step 2 scsidone ... blkmqfreerequest rq->mqhctx = NULL; step 4

Below is KE back trace. ufshcdtrytoaborttask: cmd at tag 41 not pending in the device. ufshcdtrytoaborttask: cmd at tag=41 is cleared.
