Similar to the connection usage count\nlogic, the waiter signaled by complete() (e.g., in the session release\npath) may wake up and free the iscsit_session structure immediately.\n\nThis creates a race condition where the current thread may attempt to\nexecute spin_unlock_bh() on a session structure that has already been\ndeallocated, resulting in a KASAN slab-use-after-free.\n\nTo resolve this, release the session_usage_lock before calling complete()\nto ensure all dereferences of the sess pointer are finished before the\nwaiter is allowed to proceed with deallocation.","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/11ebafffce31efc6abeb28c509017976fc49f1ca","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2b64015550a13bcc72910be0565548d9a754d46d","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/41b86a9ec037bd3435d68dd3692f0891a207e7e7","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4530f4e4d0e6a207110b0ffed0c911bca43531a4","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/84dc6037390b8607c5551047d3970336cb51ba9a"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-21T03:43:09.190223697+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-23193","score":0.00363,"percentile":0.29872,"date":"2026-10-25"},"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).
