Unity Linux 20.1070a Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-409587)

high Nessus Plugin ID 267792

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-2025-409587 advisory.

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

scsi: aacraid: Fix double-free on probe failure

aac_probe_one() calls hardware-specific init functions through the aac_driver_ident::init pointer, all of which eventually call down to aac_init_adapter().

If aac_init_adapter() fails after allocating memory for aac_dev::queues, it frees the memory but does not clear that member.

After the hardware-specific init function returns an error, aac_probe_one() goes down an error path that frees the memory pointed to by aac_dev::queues, resulting.in a double-free.

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.
