Unity Linux 20.1050a / 20.1060a / 20.1070a Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-386036)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 267788

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-2025-386036 advisory.

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

 sctp: properly validate chunk size in sctp_sf_ootb()

 A size validation fix similar to that in Commit 50619dbf8db7 (sctp: add size validation when walking chunks) is also required in sctp_sf_ootb() to address a crash reported by syzbot:

 BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in sctp_sf_ootb+0x7f5/0xce0 net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c:3712 sctp_sf_ootb+0x7f5/0xce0 net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c:3712 sctp_do_sm+0x181/0x93d0 net/sctp/sm_sideeffect.c:1166 sctp_endpoint_bh_rcv+0xc38/0xf90 net/sctp/endpointola.c:407 sctp_inq_push+0x2ef/0x380 net/sctp/inqueue.c:88 sctp_rcv+0x3831/0x3b20 net/sctp/input.c:243 sctp4_rcv+0x42/0x50 net/sctp/protocol.c:1159 ip_protocol_deliver_rcu+0xb51/0x13d0 net/ipv4/ip_input.c:205 ip_local_deliver_finish+0x336/0x500 net/ipv4/ip_input.c:233

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.
