Subject: CVE-2025-40261: nvme: nvme-fc: Ensure ->ioerr_work is cancelled in nvme_fc_delete_ctrl()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...nel.org>

Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nvme: nvme-fc: Ensure ->ioerr_work is cancelled in nvme_fc_delete_ctrl()

nvme_fc_delete_assocation() waits for pending I/O to complete before
returning, and an error can cause ->ioerr_work to be queued after
cancel_work_sync() had been called.  Move the call to cancel_work_sync() to
be after nvme_fc_delete_association() to ensure ->ioerr_work is not running
when the nvme_fc_ctrl object is freed.  Otherwise the following can occur:

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
