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

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

media: cx23885: add ioremap return check and cleanup

Add a check for the return value of pci_ioremap_bar()
in cx23885_dev_setup().
If ioremap for BAR0 fails, release the already allocated
PCI memory region,
decrement the device count, and return -ENODEV.

This prevents a potential null pointer dereference and
ensures proper cleanup
on memory mapping failure.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-68226 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:
