How to Fix CVE-2026-89850

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Software dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

mvn dependency:tree

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2026-89850, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Software in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than the patched release), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under General Security Weakness. In Software, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Don't query firmware state while chip is down qla2x00_fw_state_show() initializes rval to QLA_FUNCTION_FAILED and jumps to the out: label when the chip is down or EEH is busy. The out: block then re-issued qla2x00_get_firmware_state() because rval != QLA_SUCCESS, defeating the chip-down/EEH-busy guards and issuing a mailbox command (outside optrom_mutex) during ISP reset or PCI error recovery, which can hang the adapter. It also turned a normal in-lock mailbox failure into a second unsynchronized mailbox attempt. Make the out: fallback only mark the firmware state as unknown. The mailbox is now issued at most once, inside optrom_mutex, and only when the chip is up and not EEH-busy.
