Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
scsi: qla2xxx: During vport delete send async logout explicitly<br />
<br />
During vport delete, it is observed that during unload we hit a crash<br />
because of stale entries in outstanding command array. For all these stale<br />
I/O entries, eh_abort was issued and aborted (fast_fail_io = 2009h) but<br />
I/Os could not complete while vport delete is in process of deleting.<br />
<br />
