The REPLY command then continues and writes into freed memory, causing a use-after-free. KASAN reports it as: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __sha256_final Write of size 4 at addr ffff88800359c540 ... nvmet_auth_sq_free (drivers/nvme/target/auth.c:237) nvmet_execute_auth_receive (drivers/nvme/target/fabrics-cmd-auth.c:621) Add a mutex to each submission queue to serialize authentication commands and timeout handling. Unlock the mutex before completing requests and ignore outdated timeout callbacks. Limit timeout delays to prevent immediate expiry on 32-bit kernels.
