In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfc: fdp: Fix potential memory leak in fdp_nci_send() fdp_nci_send() will call fdp_nci_i2c_write that will not free skb in the function. As a result, when fdp_nci_i2c_write() finished, the skb will memleak. fdp_nci_send() should free skb after fdp_nci_i2c_write() finished.

The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2025-987188 advisory.

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

    nfc: fdp: Fix potential memory leak in fdp_nci_send()

    fdp_nci_send() will call fdp_nci_i2c_write that will not free skb in     the function. As a result, when fdp_nci_i2c_write() finished, the skb     will memleak. fdp_nci_send() should free skb after fdp_nci_i2c_write()     finished.

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

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue 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.

    fdp_nci_send() should free skb after fdp_nci_i2c_write() finished. (CVE-2022-49924)

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