  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nscsi: target: iscsi: Fix use-after-free in iscsit_dec_session_usage_count()\n\nIn iscsit_dec_session_usage_count(), the function calls complete() while\nholding the sess->session_usage_lock. 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.",

      "scenario": "AV:N - The iSCSI target is a network-facing service listening on TCP port 3260. An authenticated remote initiator can trigger session logout or reinstatement flows that reach the vulnerable function.\nAC:L - The race condition is inherent in the code path \u2014 whenever session_usage_count reaches 0 with a waiter, the UAF occurs deterministically because complete() wakes the waiter before spin_unlock_bh(). The attacker triggers this by initiating session logout, and the bug fires reliably.\nPR:L - An iSCSI initiator must authenticate (via CHAP or ACL) before establishing a session. Only authenticated sessions can trigger logout/reinstatement paths that call iscsit_dec_session_usage_count().\nUI:N - No user interaction is required. The attacker directly connects to the iSCSI target service, authenticates, and triggers session logout or reinstatement.\nS:U - The vulnerability affects the kernel within the same security authority. There is no crossing of a VM boundary or sandbox escape.\nC:H - This is a use-after-free on a kernel heap object (iscsit_session structure). UAFs allow an attacker to control freed object contents via heap spraying, potentially enabling arbitrary kernel memory reads.\nI:H - The use-after-free on the session structure enables heap spraying attacks that can achieve arbitrary write primitives and control flow hijacking in kernel context.\nA:H - The use-after-free causes a KASAN slab-use-after-free (as reported), which results in a kernel crash/oops, causing complete denial of service."
