In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: iscsi: Fix timeout on deleted connection
NOPIN response timer may expire on a deleted connection and crash with
such logs:
Did not receive response to NOPIN on CID: 0, failing connection for I_T Nexus (null),i,0x00023d000125,iqn.2017-01.com.iscsi.target,t,0x3d
BUG: Kernel NULL pointer dereference on read at 0x00000000

Call Trace:

That is because nopin response timer may be re-started on nopin timer
expiration.
Stop nopin timer before stopping the nopin response timer to be sure
that no one of them will be re-started.
