Unity Linux 20.1050a / 20.1060a / 20.1070a Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-394417)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 267530

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-2025-394417 advisory.

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

drm/amd/display: Fix potential NULL pointer dereferences in 'dcn10_set_output_transfer_func()'

The 'stream' pointer is used in dcn10_set_output_transfer_func() before the check if 'stream' is NULL.

Fixes the below:
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/hwss/dcn10/dcn10_hwseq.c:1892 dcn10_set_output_transfer_func() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'stream' (see line 1875)

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.
