      <title>CVE-2026-98224 — mm/vma: correctly unaccount on mmap_prepare() failure</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-98224</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;mm/vma: correctly unaccount on mmap_prepare() failure&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;__mmap_setup() accounts memory for relevant mappings via:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;security_vm_enough_memory_mm()
  -&amp;gt; __vm_enough_memory()
    -&amp;gt; vm_acct_memory()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If __mmap_setup() fails, this indicates that this accounting did not take
place, and thus it&amp;#39;s appropriate for __mmap_region() to jump to
abort_munmap.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However if call_mmap_prepare() fails, it also jumps there and any accounted
memory is not correctly unaccounted.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fix this by handling each error separately.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
