CVE-2023-53387

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

scsi: ufs: core: Fix device management cmd timeout flow

In the UFS error handling flow, the host will send a device management cmd (NOP OUT) to the device for link recovery. If this cmd times out and clearing the doorbell fails, ufshcd_wait_for_dev_cmd() will do nothing and return. hba->dev_cmd.complete struct is not set to NULL.

When this happens, if cmd has been completed by device, then we will call complete() in __ufshcd_transfer_req_compl(). Because the complete struct is allocated on the stack, the following crash will occur:
