Unity Linux 20.1050a / 20.1060a / 20.1070a Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-388201)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 267279

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-2025-388201 advisory.

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

dma-buf/sw-sync: don't enable IRQ from sync_print_obj()

Since commit a6aa8fca4d79 (dma-buf/sw-sync: Reduce irqsave/irqrestore from known context) by error replaced spin_unlock_irqrestore() with spin_unlock_irq() for both sync_debugfs_show() and sync_print_obj() despite sync_print_obj() is called from sync_debugfs_show(), lockdep complains inconsistent lock state warning.

Use plain spin_{lock,unlock}() for sync_print_obj(), for sync_debugfs_show() is already using spin_{lock,unlock}_irq().

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.
