Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
scsi: pm80xx: Fix array-index-out-of-of-bounds on rmmod<br />
<br />
Since commit f7b705c238d1 ("scsi: pm80xx: Set phy_attached to zero when<br />
device is gone") UBSAN reports:<br />
<br />
UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in drivers/scsi/pm8001/pm8001_sas.c:786:17<br />
index 28 is out of range for type &#39;pm8001_phy [16]&#39;<br />
<br />
on rmmod when using an expander.<br />
<br />
For a direct attached device, attached_phy contains the local phy id.<br />
For a device behind an expander, attached_phy contains the remote phy<br />
id, not the local phy id.<br />
<br />
I.e. while pm8001_ha will have pm8001_ha->chip->n_phy local phys, for a<br />
device behind an expander, attached_phy can be much larger than<br />
pm8001_ha->chip->n_phy (depending on the amount of phys of the<br />
expander).<br />
<br />
E.g. on my system pm8001_ha has 8 phys with phy ids 0-7. One of the<br />
ports has an expander connected. The expander has 31 phys with phy ids<br />
0-30.<br />
<br />
The pm8001_ha->phy array only contains the phys of the HBA. It does not<br />
contain the phys of the expander. Thus, it is wrong to use attached_phy<br />
to index the pm8001_ha->phy array for a device behind an expander.<br />
<br />
Thus, we can only clear phy_attached for devices that are directly<br />
attached.
