Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: call missing mem_cgroup_iter_break()

damon_sysfs_memcg_path_to_id() breaks mem_cgroup_iter() loop without
calling mem_cgroup_iter_break().  This leaks the cgroup reference.  Fix
the issue by calling mem_cgroup_iter_break() before the break.

The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-64184 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
