AI-suggested

Avoid querying local disk serial numbers from untrusted or attacker-controlled storage devices or virtual storage backends. Configure systems to reject or sanitize malformed SCSI VPD page 0x80 data before it is processed by libstoragemgmt to prevent stack buffer overflows.

Description

A stack buffer overflow vulnerability exists in libstoragemgmt's _sg_parse_vpd_80() function when parsing SCSI Vital Product Data page 0x80. An attacker with local control over a storage device or virtual storage backend can supply malformed data with an untrusted page length field, causing a denial of service by crashing or destabilizing the querying process.
