CVE-2025-68818

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the QLogic Fibre Channel HBA driver (qla2xxx) in the Linux kernel. During ISP error recovery, the abort path incorrectly assumes all command types are TYPE_SRB. When operating in SCSI target mode with TYPE_TGT_CMD commands, this results in calling a NULL function pointer, causing a kernel crash.

This vulnerability specifically affects systems using QLogic FC HBAs in SCSI target mode configurations. It manifests during ISP error recovery sequences triggered by firmware errors. Standard initiator-mode deployments are less likely to encounter this crash path.
