Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-80653)
Summary
Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-80653). Successful exploitation can lead to full system takeover.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: hisi_sas: Add slave_destroy interface for v3 hw
WARNING is triggered when executing link reset of remote PHY and rmmod
SAS driver simultaneously. Following is the WARNING log:
WARNING: CPU: 61 PID: 21818 at drivers/base/core.c:1347 __device_links_no_driver+0xb4/0xc0

---[ end trace 71e059eb58f85d4a ]---
During SAS phy up, link->status is set to DL_STATE_AVAILABLE in
device_links_driver_bound, then this setting influences
__device_links_no_driver() before driver rmmod and caused WARNING.
Add the slave_destroy interface to make sure link is removed after flush
workque.
