Subject: [PATCH] scsi: pm8001: Fix use-after-free in pm8001_queue_command()
Date: Tue, 10 Feb 2026 01:07:54 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260210010754.1824914-1-salomondush@google.com> (raw)

Commit e29c47fe8946 ("scsi: pm8001: Simplify pm8001_task_exec()")
refactors pm8001_queue_command(), however it introduces a potential
cause of a double free scenario when it changes the function to return
-ENODEV in case of phy down/device gone state.

In this path, pm8001_queue_command updates task status and calls
task_done to indicate to upper layer that the task has been handled.
However, this also frees the underlying sas task. A -ENODEV is then
returned to the caller. When libsas sas_ata_qc_issue receives this error
value, it assumes the task wasn't handled/queued by LLDD and proceeds to
clean up and free the task again, resulting in a double free.

Since pm8001_queue_command handles the sas task in this case, it should
return 0 to the caller indicating that the task has been handled.
