CVE-2024-57807

SCSI operation hang via inverted lock order

Published Jan 11, 2025 · Updated May 23, 2026

Improper locking in the Linux kernel megaraid_sas driver allows local users to interrupt SCSI controller reset and scan operations. The driver acquires reset_mutex and scan_mutex in opposite orders across reset and host-scan paths, creating a circular wait. Triggering the condition requires local access and concurrent execution of the affected SCSI paths; no data disclosure or modification is reported.
