CVE-2026-98129

MEDIUM

Description

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

scsi: mpi3mr: Fix NULL pointer dereference in mpi3mr_sas_port_add()

sas_port_alloc_num() can return NULL on memory allocation failure. The
return value is passed directly to sas_port_add() without a NULL check,
which causes a NULL pointer dereference.

Additionally, if sas_port_add() fails, the allocated port is not freed
before jumping to out_fail, leaking the sas_port structure. Call
sas_port_free() to properly release it.

CVSS v3 vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
