EPSS 0.28%
Description
Smatch reports a warning as follows:
drivers/scsi/snic/snic_disc.c:307 snic_tgt_create() warn: '&tgt->list' not removed from list
If device_add() fails in snic_tgt_create(), tgt will be freed, but tgt->list will not be removed from snic->disc.tgt_list, then list traversal may cause UAF.
Remove from snic->disc.tgt_list before free().
