An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-89863 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-89863/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-89863/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-89863","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-89863/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-89863","record":{"aliases":["AZL-101457","BELL-CVE-2026-89863","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-89863","GHSA-43g8-fhx4-jf78","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-89863"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A NULL pointer dereference in the qla2xxx EDIF driver allows a local attacker to crash the Linux kernel via a crafted SCSI command completion.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nscsi: qla2xxx: edif: Fix NULL pointer deref in RX SA delete check\n\nqla_chk_edif_rx_sa_delete_pending() obtains the SCSI command via\nGET_CMD_SP(sp) and immediately dereferences cmd-\u003esc_data_direction.\nThat command pointer can be NULL: the firmware may post a status\ncompletion for a command that has already been returned or aborted.
