CVE-2026-23216

EUVD-2026-8019
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

scsi: target: iscsi: Fix use-after-free in iscsit_dec_conn_usage_count()

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().
