In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: procfs: fix possible double mmput() in do_procmap_query() When user provides incorrectly sized buffer for build ID for PROCMAP_QUERY we return with -ENAMETOOLONG error. After recent changes this condition happens later, after we unlocked mmap_lock/per-VMA lock and did mmput(), so original goto out is now wrong and will double-mmput() mm_struct. Fix by jumping further to clean up only vm_file and name_buf.

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Oracle Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: procfs: fix possible double mmput() in     do_procmap_query() When user provides incorrectly sized buffer for build ID for PROCMAP_QUERY we return     with -ENAMETOOLONG error. After recent changes this condition happens later, after we unlocked     mmap_lock/per-VMA lock and did mmput(), so original goto out is now wrong and will double-mmput()     mm_struct. Fix by jumping further to clean up only vm_file and name_buf. (CVE-2026-43178)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
