scsi: target: iscsi: Fix use-after-free in iscsit_dec_conn_usage_count()
jira VULN-176436
cve CVE-2026-23216
commit-author Maurizio Lombardi <mlombard@redhat.com>
commit 9411a89
In iscsit_dec_conn_usage_count(), the function calls complete() while
holding the conn->conn_usage_lock. As soon as complete() is invoked, the
waiter (such as iscsit_close_connection()) may wake up and proceed to free
the iscsit_conn structure.
If the waiter frees the memory before the current thread reaches
spin_unlock_bh(), it results in a KASAN slab-use-after-free as the function
attempts to release a lock within the already-freed connection structure.
Fix this by releasing the spinlock before calling complete().
