Subject: [PATCH v4] scsi: scsi_transport_fc: widen FPIN pname walker counter to u32
Date: Wed, 20 May 2026 09:30:15 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260520133015.1018937-1-michael.bommarito@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260519190615.2761667-1-michael.bommarito@gmail.com>
An adjacent Fibre Channel fabric actor that can deliver an FPIN ELS
frame to an lpfc or qla2xxx Linux initiator can trigger a non-return
in the generic FC transport. This is not a local userspace or IP
network path; the attacker must be able to inject fabric traffic, for
example as a compromised switch or fabric controller, or as a same-zone
N_Port on a fabric that permits source spoofing.
The Link-Integrity and Peer-Congestion FPIN walkers used a u8 loop
counter against the 32-bit on-wire pname_count field, and did not bound
pname_count by the descriptor body already validated by the TLV walker.
A pname_count of 256 therefore wraps the counter and keeps the loop
condition true indefinitely.
Factor the shared pname_list[] walk into one helper, widen the counter
to u32, and clamp pname_count against the entries that fit in the
descriptor body before iterating.
Fixes: 3dcfe0de5a97 ("scsi: fc: Parse FPIN packets and update statistics")

Changes in v4:
- Use min() rather than min_t(u32, ...) for the pname_count clamp and
fold away the temporary max_count variable, as David Laight suggested.
Changes in v3:
- State the fabric-adjacent threat model explicitly in the commit
message and clarify that this is not local userspace or IP-network
reachable.
- Use min_t(u32, ...) for the pname_count clamp, as Christoph suggested.
- Use FC_TLV_DESC_LENGTH_FROM_SZ() instead of open-coding the descriptor
body length calculation.
- Factor the duplicate LI and peer-congestion pname walker into a common
helper while preserving the LI-only host-stat update.
Changes in v2:
- Drop the redundant cover letter shipped with v1. A single-patch send
does not need one, and the v1 cover carried stale draft markers.
