NewCVE-2026-45857 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Centos security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Centos:10.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-devel package and not the kernel-devel package as distributed by Centos.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: csiostor: Fix dereference of null pointer rn
The error exit path when rn is NULL ends up deferencing the null pointer rn via the use of the macro CSIO_INC_STATS. Fix this by adding a new error return path label after the use of the macro to avoid the deference.
