Unity Linux 20.1070a Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-990275)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 272418

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-2025-990275 advisory.

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

MIPS: Loongson64: DTS: Really fix PCIe port nodes for ls7a

Fix the dtc warnings:

arch/mips/boot/dts/loongson/ls7a-pch.dtsi:68.16-416.5: Warning (interrupt_provider):
/bus@10000000/pci@1a000000: '#interrupt-cells' found, but node is not an interrupt provider arch/mips/boot/dts/loongson/ls7a-pch.dtsi:68.16-416.5: Warning (interrupt_provider):
/bus@10000000/pci@1a000000: '#interrupt-cells' found, but node is not an interrupt provider arch/mips/boot/dts/loongson/loongson64g_4core_ls7a.dtb: Warning (interrupt_map): Failed prerequisite 'interrupt_provider'

And a runtime warning introduced in commit 045b14ca5c36 (of: WARN on deprecated #address-cells/#size-cells handling):

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at drivers/of/base.c:106 of_bus_n_addr_cells+0x9c/0xe0 Missing '#address-cells' in /bus@10000000/pci@1a000000/pci_bridge@9,0

The fix is similar to commit d89a415ff8d5 (MIPS: Loongson64: DTS: Fix PCIe port nodes for ls7a), which has fixed the issue for ls2k (despite its subject mentions ls7a).

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.
