Unity Linux 20.1050a / 20.1060a / 20.1070a Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-399502)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 267446

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-2025-399502 advisory.

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

net: phy: fix phy_get_internal_delay accessing an empty array

The phy_get_internal_delay function could try to access to an empty array in the case that the driver is calling phy_get_internal_delay without defining delay_values and rx-internal-delay-ps or tx-internal-delay-ps is defined to 0 in the device-tree.
This will lead to unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0. To avoid this kernel oops, the test should be delay >= 0. As there is already delay < 0 test just before, the test could only be size == 0.

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.
