The probability is the direct output of the EPSS model, and conveys an overall sense of the threat of exploitation in the wild. The percentile measures the EPSS probability relative to all known EPSS scores. Note: This data is updated daily, relying on the latest available EPSS model version.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vhost/scsi: null-ptr-dereference in vhost_scsi_get_req()
Since commit 3f8ca2e115e5 ("vhost/scsi: Extract common handling code from control queue handler") a null pointer dereference bug can be triggered when guest sends an SCSI AN request.
In vhost_scsi_ctl_handle_vq(), vc.target
is assigned with
&v_req.tmf.lun[1]
within a switch-case block and is then passed to
vhost_scsi_get_req() which extracts vc->req
and tpg
. However, for
a VIRTIO_SCSI_T_AN_*
request, tpg is not required, so vc.target
is
set to NULL in this branch. Later, in vhost_scsi_get_req(),
vc->target
is dereferenced without being checked, leading to a null
pointer dereference bug. This bug can be triggered from guest.
When this bug occurs, the vhost_worker process is killed while holding
vq->mutex
and the corresponding tpg will remain occupied
indefinitely.
