Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: iscsi_tcp: Fix UAF during logout when accessing the shost ipaddress Bug report and analysis from Ding Hui. During iSCSI session logout, if another task accesses the shost ipaddress attr, we can get a KASAN UAF report like this: [ 276.942144] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in _raw_spin_lock_bh+0x78/0xe0 [ 276.942535] Write of size 4 at addr ffff8881053b45b8 by task cat/4088 [ 276.943511] CPU: 2 PID: 4088 Comm: cat Tainted: G E 6.1.0-rc8+ #3 [ 276.943997] Hardware name: VMware, Inc.
