UBUNTU-CVE-2026-89446: Medium severity ubuntu/linux-hwe-edge vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommufd: Release current IOAS on xastore() failure iommufdtakealliovarwsem() takes an object reference and the iovarwsem write lock before storing the IOAS in the temporary ioaslist xarray. If xastore() fails, the current IOAS has not been inserted into ioaslist yet. iommufdreleasealliovarwsem() only unwinds IOAS objects already present in that xarray, so it cannot release the current IOAS. Release the current IOAS rwsem and object reference before unwinding the previously stored entries.
