Description
From CVE.org
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: hisi_sas: Fix a deadlock issue related to automatic dump If we issue a disabling PHY command, the device attached with it will go offline, if a 2 bit ECC error occurs at the same time, a hung task may be found: [ 4613.652388] INFO: task kworker/u256:0:165233 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

However, the internal abort timed out due to the 2 bit ECC error and triggers automatic dump. In addition, since the hisi_hba semaphore has been obtained, the dump cannot be executed and the controller cannot be reset. Therefore, the deadlocks occur on the following circular dependencies ---truncated---
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.
CVSS v3 Score Breakdown
| Red Hat | NVD | cve.org | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Base Score | 4.4 | 5.5 | N/A |
| Attack Vector | Local | Local | N/A |
| Attack Complexity | Low | Low | N/A |
| Privileges Required | High | Low | N/A |
| User Interaction | None | None | N/A |
| Scope | Unchanged | Unchanged | N/A |

Understanding the Weakness (CWE)
Availability
Technical Impact: DoS: Resource Consumption (CPU); DoS: Resource Consumption (Other); DoS: Crash, Exit, or Restart
Each thread of execution will "hang" and prevent tasks from completing. In some cases, CPU consumption may occur if a lock check occurs in a tight loop.
