## Overview

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

scsi: qla2xxx: Remove redundant VPD flash read in sysfs read path

qla2x00_sysfs_read_vpd() called ha->isp_ops->read_optrom() a second time
after releasing optrom_mutex. The repeated read is redundant and, unlike
the first, runs without optrom_mutex held, exposing flash access to
concurrent optrom operations. Drop the duplicate call.

## Remediation

Refer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.
