Doc Text:	A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's SCSI Generic (BSG) subsystem. A local attacker can exploit this flaw to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) or potentially escalate privileges by triggering an out-of-bounds write in kernel memory. The issue arises because the buffer allocated for Universal Flash Storage (UFS) requests is smaller than the response structure returned by Advanced Replay Protected Memory Block (RPMB) commands, causing data to be written past the buffer boundary.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-10-28 10:59:16 UTC

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

scsi: bsg: Pass reply_len to bsg_setup_queue() to fit UFS ARPMB replies

bsg-lib allocates a 96-byte (SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE) reply buffer per
job, but struct ufs_rpmb_reply is 104 bytes: a 40-byte struct
ufs_bsg_reply followed by a 64-byte EHS. When an Advanced RPMB command
returns an EHS, ufshcd_advanced_rpmb_req_handler() copies it right after
the 40-byte header and writes 8 bytes past the end of the buffer.

Let each BSG transport pass its reply buffer size to bsg_setup_queue()
and have ufs_bsg request sizeof(struct ufs_rpmb_reply), so the full
reply reaches user space. Other transports keep SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE.
