CVE-2022-50744 Vulnerability Summary

CVE-2022-50744: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: lpfc: Fix hard lockup when reading the rx_monitor from debugfs During I/O and simultaneous cat of /sys/kernel/debug/lpfc/fnX/rx_monitor, a hard lockup similar to the call trace below may occur. The spin_lock_bh in lpfc_rx_monitor_report is not protecting from timer interrupts as expected, so change the strength of the spin lock to _irq. Kernel panic - not syncing: Hard LOCKUP CPU: 3 PID: 110402 Comm: cat Kdump: loaded exception RIP: native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath+91 [IRQ stack] native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath at ffffffffb814e30b _raw_spin_lock at ffffffffb89a667a lpfc_rx_monitor_record at ffffffffc0a73a36 [lpfc] lpfc_cmf_timer at ffffffffc0abbc67 [lpfc] __hrtimer_run_queues at ffffffffb8184250 hrtimer_interrupt at ffffffffb8184ab0 smp_apic_timer_interrupt at ffffffffb8a026ba apic_timer_interrupt at ffffffffb8a01c4f [End of IRQ stack] apic_timer_interrupt at ffffffffb8a01c4f lpfc_rx_monitor_report at ffffffffc0a73c80 [lpfc] lpfc_rx_monitor_read at ffffffffc0addde1 [lpfc] full_proxy_read at ffffffffb83e7fc3 vfs_read at ffffffffb833fe71 ksys_read at ffffffffb83402af do_syscall_64 at ffffffffb800430b entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe at ffffffffb8a000ad

Assessing the Risk of CVE-2022-50744

Access Complexity Graph

The exploitability of CVE-2022-50744 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).

Exploitability Analysis for CVE-2022-50744

No exploitability data is available for CVE-2022-50744.

Understanding AC and PR

A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.

Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.

Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.

CVSS Score Breakdown Chart

Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2022-50744, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.
