Subject: [PATCH 3/8] scsi: target: reject a short SET TARGET PORT GROUPS list
Date: Tue,  6 Oct 2026 17:33:33 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261006093338.27342-4-physicalmtea@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261006093338.27342-1-physicalmtea@gmail.com>

target_emulate_set_target_port_groups() accepts any parameter list of
4 bytes or more. The walk then reads a 4-byte descriptor whenever any
byte remains. A 5-byte list reads ptr[0] and get_unaligned_be16(ptr + 2),
which is buf[6] and buf[7].

Explicit ALUA is enabled on a new target port group. Access state 0 is
Active/Optimized, so that read is reached. vhost-scsi keeps one sg
inside a page. Five bytes at page offset 4091 end on the page boundary,
and the port-group id is the next physical page.

A legal list is a 4-byte header plus 4-byte descriptors. Reject a
length that is not a multiple of 4 before any port-group state changes.

KASAN reports:

  BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in target_emulate_set_target_port_groups+0x1dc/0x540 [target_core_mod]
