This results in a iscsi_task use after free, because the common\ncleanup code will do a put on the iscsi_task.\n\nThis reverts the goto and moves the iscsi_get_conn() to after we've checked\nif the iscsi_task is valid.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.8},"cwes":["CWE-416"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1642f51ac0d4f2b55d5748094c49ff8f7191b93c","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/258aad75c62146453d03028a44f2f1590d58e1f6","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1642f51ac0d4f2b55d5748094c49ff8f7191b93c","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/258aad75c62146453d03028a44f2f1590d58e1f6"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:50:30.954589733+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2021-47427","score":0.00462,"percentile":0.40062,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
