Unity Linux 20.1050a / 20.1060a / 20.1070a Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-406106)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 266879

Synopsis

The Unity Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2025-406106 advisory.

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

 usb: atm: cxacru: fix endpoint checking in cxacru_bind()

 Syzbot is still reporting quite an old issue [1] that occurs due to incomplete checking of present usb endpoints. As such, wrong endpoints types may be used at urb sumbitting stage which in turn triggers a warning in usb_submit_urb().

 Fix the issue by verifying that required endpoint types are present for both in and out endpoints, taking into account cmd endpoint type.

 Unfortunately, this patch has not been tested on real hardware.

 [1] Syzbot report:

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.
