In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nvmet-fc: avoid deadlock on delete association path When deleting an association the shutdown path is deadlocking because we try to flush the nvmet_wq nested. Avoid this by deadlock by deferring the put work into its own work item.
The CVSS severity warrants an early asset and exposure review.

Confirm exposure before applying a vendor-supported change.
Confirm that Linux Linux, linux kernel and an affected version are present.
Combine exploitation signals with asset exposure and business criticality.
Follow the vendor advisory or supported update path and preserve rollback options.
Recheck the version, service health, access paths, and relevant logs.
