Unity Linux 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-987705)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 271020

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-2025-987705 advisory.

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

w1: fix WARNING after calling w1_process()

I got the following WARNING message while removing driver(ds2482):

------------[ cut here ]------------ do not call blocking ops when !TASK_RUNNING; state=1 set at [<000000002d50bfb6>] w1_process+0x9e/0x1d0 [wire] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 262 at kernel/sched/core.c:9817 __might_sleep+0x98/0xa0 CPU: 0 PID: 262 Comm: w1_bus_master1 Tainted: G N 6.1.0-rc3+ #307 RIP: 0010:__might_sleep+0x98/0xa0 Call Trace:

The state of task is set to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE in loop in w1_process(), set it to TASK_RUNNING when it breaks out of the loop to avoid the warning.

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.
