Subject: [PATCH] scsi: libsas: Fix use-after-free in sas_eh_handle_resets()
Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2026 14:39:46 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260917143946.2157366-1-vulab@iscas.ac.cn> (raw)

sas_eh_handle_resets() drops the reference it took on the domain device
with sas_put_device() and then accesses dev->state again while holding
ha->lock. The put may release the last reference, so the clear_bit()
can touch freed memory.

Clear the pending flag first and drop the reference last.

Fixes: 5db45bdc87ce ("[SCSI] libsas: enforce eh strategy handlers only in eh context")
