CVE-2022-50422

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

scsi: libsas: Fix use-after-free bug in smp_execute_task_sg()

When executing SMP task failed, the smp_execute_task_sg() calls del_timer()
to delete "slow_task->timer". However, if the timer handler
sas_task_internal_timedout() is running, the del_timer() in
smp_execute_task_sg() will not stop it and a UAF will happen. The process
is shown below:

      (thread 1)               |        (thread 2)
smp_execute_task_sg()          | sas_task_internal_timedout()
 ...                           |
 del_timer()                   |
 ...                           |  ...
 sas_free_task(task)           |
  kfree(task->slow_task) //FREE|
                               |  task->slow_task->... //USE

Fix by calling del_timer_sync() in smp_execute_task_sg(), which makes sure
the timer handler have finished before the "task->slow_task" is
deallocated.

CWE-416 Use After Free

The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.
