Unity Linux 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-987703)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 270896

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-2025-987703 advisory.

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

 phy: qcom-qmp: fix reset-controller leak on probe errors

 Make sure to release the lane reset controller in case of a late probe error (e.g. probe deferral).

 Note that due to the reset controller being defined in devicetree in lane child nodes, devm_reset_control_get_exclusive() cannot be used directly.

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.
