In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: aic94xx: fix use-after-free in device removal path
The asd_pci_remove() function fails to synchronize with pending tasklets
before freeing the asd_ha structure, leading to a potential
use-after-free vulnerability.
When a device removal is triggered (via hot-unplug or module unload),
race condition can occur.
The fix adds tasklet_kill() before freeing the asd_ha structure,
ensuring all scheduled tasklets complete before cleanup proceeds.
