medium Nessus Plugin ID 267993

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-2025-987035 advisory.

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

 ima: Fix potential memory leak in ima_init_crypto()

 On failure to allocate the SHA1 tfm, IMA fails to initialize and exits without freeing the ima_algo_array. Add the missing kfree() for ima_algo_array to avoid the potential memory leak.
