Unity Linux 20.1050a / 20.1060a / 20.1070a Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-403064)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 267619

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-2025-403064 advisory.

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

scsi: qedf: Fix a possible memory leak in qedf_alloc_and_init_sb()

Hook qed_ops->common->sb_init = qed_sb_init does not release the DMA memory sb_virt when it fails. Add dma_free_coherent() to free it. This is the same way as qedr_alloc_mem_sb() and qede_alloc_mem_sb().

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.
