Unity Linux 20.1050a / 20.1060a / 20.1070a Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-380019)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 266995

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-2025-380019 advisory.

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

 scsi: Revert scsi: fcoe: Fix potential deadlock on &fip->ctlr_lock

 This reverts commit 1a1975551943f681772720f639ff42fbaa746212.

 This commit causes interrupts to be lost for FCoE devices, since it changed sping locks from bh to irqsave.

 Instead, a work queue should be used, and will be addressed in a separate commit.

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.

Solution

Update the affected kernel package.
