CVE-2022-50744 — scsi: lpfc: Fix hard lockup when reading the rx_monitor from debugfs

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.

Low

Who exploits it and how urgent it is

A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.

No exploitation signal in the sources consulted so far.

How the score was calculated

EPSS 0.2% (30-day exploitation probability)+2

The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).

Triage

Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.

Exploitation

Not confirmed

Not in CISA KEV — an absence of record, not proof it is unexploited.

Remediation

Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.

No fix documented by the sources we poll. That does not mean none exists: check the vendor advisory.

First 24 hours

Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.

Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Linux Linux).
No fix documented in the sources: reduce exposure and monitor the vendor advisory.
