Subject: Modules: release work started while logging unhandled rejections
X-Git-Url: https://git.kaiwu.me/ngx_http_auth_basic_module.html?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0cb35d2adf68052f3179ef86cefe98be71e4201b;p=njs.git

Modules: release work started while logging unhandled rejections

Context teardown cleared pending events before logging an unhandled
rejection.  Converting the rejection reason to a string runs user code,
which could start a timer or a fetch() after the cleanup.  The timer or
connection then outlived the request pool, resulting in use-after-free
with both engines.

Log unhandled rejections before clearing events.
