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-2025-381917 advisory.

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

spi: mpc52xx: Add cancel_work_sync before module remove

If we remove the module which will call mpc52xx_spi_remove it will free 'ms' through spi_unregister_controller.
while the work ms->work will be used. The sequence of operations that may lead to a UAF bug.

Fix it by ensuring that the work is canceled before proceeding with the cleanup in mpc52xx_spi_remove.

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