About this tag
The UAS driver (USB Attached SCSI) is a Linux kernel component that handles high-speed storage devices using the UAS protocol. Discussions on WindowsForum.com cover a recent kernel patch fixing a race condition (CVE-2025-68331) in the UAS driver that could cause a system panic when a UAS device is unplugged during active I/O. The patch addresses how the driver handles partial URB submissions to prevent invalid memory access. This tag is relevant for users interested in Linux kernel storage drivers, USB storage performance, and security fixes related to USB SCSI transport.
