✅ Remediation

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 Workaround: Remove or comment out the REMOVE_CMD rule from 50-udev-default.rules to prevent command execution on device removal. Alternatively, if automatic SCSI device identification is not required, disable the udev rule that invokes sg_inq --export on device connection.
