From 41b86a9ec037bd3435d68dd3692f0891a207e7e7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Maurizio Lombardi Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2026 17:53:52 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] scsi: target: iscsi: Fix use-after-free in iscsit_dec_session_usage_count() [ Upstream commit 84dc6037390b8607c5551047d3970336cb51ba9a ] In iscsit_dec_session_usage_count(), the function calls complete() while holding the sess->session_usage_lock. Similar to the connection usage count logic, the waiter signaled by complete() (e.g., in the session release path) may wake up and free the iscsit_session structure immediately. This creates a race condition where the current thread may attempt to execute spin_unlock_bh() on a session structure that has already been deallocated, resulting in a KASAN slab-use-after-free. To resolve this, release the session_usage_lock before calling complete() to ensure all dereferences of the sess pointer are finished before the waiter is allowed to proceed with deallocation.
