NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream sg3_utils-libs package and not the sg3_utils-libs package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in sg3_utils. The sg_inq command, when invoked with the --export option, outputs device identification data without sanitizing control characters in SCSI name string fields. A newline character embedded in a device-supplied name string can inject arbitrary properties into the udev device database. This could allow an attacker who can present a crafted SCSI device to execute arbitrary commands as root when the device is disconnected.
