Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

The Linux kernel's qla2xxx SCSI driver is affected in versions from 4.16 up to fixes made in the listed upstream commits, and in stable branches 6.1, 6.6, 6.12 and 6.18 before the listed fixed releases. The VP control IOCB can be written out of bounds when a virtual port index above 128 is used, which requires the adapter firmware to report more than 128 NPIV vports; the source does not say what local or network access an attacker would need. Upgrade to a fixed kernel release, such as 6.1.191, 6.6.160, 6.12.112 or 6.18.53 or later in their series. No workaround is given.
