Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: target: iblock: Fix wrong PR ops NULL check for PREEMPT/RELEASE In the iblock_execute_pr_out() function, PRO_PREEMPT, PRO_PREEMPT_AND_ABORT, and PRO_RELEASE all perform callback capability checks through ops->pr_clear. The error check allows unimplemented hooks to pass through the gate, resulting dereferencing a NULL function pointer. Check whether the hooks that need to be called are supported.

it does not cross VM, container, or IOMMU boundaries and stays within the kernel\u0027s single security authority.\\nC:N - The failure is a direct NULL function-pointer call (ops-\u003epr_preempt or ops-\u003epr_release) when the wrong pr_clear guard passes; this causes an immediate kernel fault with no out-of-bounds read, use-after-free, or attacker-controlled memory disclosure primitive.\\nI:N - The bug does not modify user data, on-disk metadata, or kernel memory contents; it only attempts to invoke a missing callback and crashes, providing no arbitrary write or code-execution primitive beyond the fault itself.\\nA:H - Dereferencing a NULL block-layer PR callback from kernel context causes an oops or panic on the target server, denying all storage services hosted on that node until reboot and potentially taking down co-located workloads.\"}]}], \"affected\": [{\"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\", \"vendor\": \"Linux\", \"product\": \"Linux\", \"versions\": [{\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"394f811848827ad23d2b43e94e5d72a24cfbc39f\", \"lessThan\": \"3c60a8b4037dc35e365658fcbcb349a5d742ff49\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"394f811848827ad23d2b43e94e5d72a24cfbc39f\", \"lessThan\": \"a326b19cfb7775378b50acaa8d836ba44e29b4c2\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"394f811848827ad23d2b43e94e5d72a24cfbc39f\", \"lessThan\": \"bdd8a1297ef101bb5ac57e53b4fbe5e364afd8b1\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"394f811848827ad23d2b43e94e5d72a24cfbc39f\", \"lessThan\": \"f15bcf9a99b1b2683fcfa005b9b3680b5600581f\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"394f811848827ad23d2b43e94e5d72a24cfbc39f\", \"lessThan\": \"9c33222bd387312874fbe36ca8002e5c945b9653\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}], \"programFiles\": [\"drivers/target/target_core_iblock.c\"], \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\"}, {\"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\", \"vendor\": \"Linux\", \"product\": \"Linux\", \"versions\": [{\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"6.5\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"0\", \"lessThan\": \"6.5\", \"versionType\": \"semver\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"6.6.151\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"6.6.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"6.12.103\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"6.12.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"6.18.44\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"6.18.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"7.1.8\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"7.1.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"7.2\", \"versionType\": \"original_commit_for_fix\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"*\"}], \"programFiles\": [\"drivers/target/target_core_iblock.c\"], \"defaultStatus\": \"affected\"}], \"references\": [{\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3c60a8b4037dc35e365658fcbcb349a5d742ff49\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a326b19cfb7775378b50acaa8d836ba44e29b4c2\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/bdd8a1297ef101bb5ac57e53b4fbe5e364afd8b1\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f15bcf9a99b1b2683fcfa005b9b3680b5600581f\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9c33222bd387312874fbe36ca8002e5c945b9653\"}], \"x_generator\": {\"engine\": \"bippy-1.2.0\"}, \"descriptions\": [{\"lang\": \"en\", \"value\": \"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\\n\\nscsi: target: iblock: Fix wrong PR ops NULL check for PREEMPT/RELEASE\\n\\nIn the iblock_execute_pr_out() function, PRO_PREEMPT,\\nPRO_PREEMPT_AND_ABORT, and PRO_RELEASE all perform callback capability\\nchecks through ops-\u003epr_clear.
