CVE-2025-39998

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:scsi: target: target_core_configfs: Add length check to avoid buffer overflowA buffer overflow arises from the usage of snprintf to write into thebuffer buf in target_lu_gp_members_show function located in/drivers/target/target_core_configfs.c. This buffer is allocated withsize LU_GROUP_NAME_BUF (256 bytes).snprintf(...) formats multiple strings into buf with the HBA name(hba->hba_group.cg_item), a slash character, a devicename (dev->dev_group.cg_item) and a newline character, the total formatted stringlength may exceed the buffer size of 256 bytes.Since snprintf() returns the total number of bytes that would have beenwritten (the length of %s/%sn ), this value may exceed the buffer length(256 bytes) passed to memcpy(), this will ultimately cause functionmemcpy reporting a buffer overflow error.An additional check of the return value of snprintf() can avoid thisbuffer overflow.
