Unity Linux 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-990087)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 272426

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-2025-990087 advisory.

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

 soc: qcom: llcc: Handle a second device without data corruption

 Usually there is only one llcc device. But if there were a second, even a failed probe call would modify the global drv_data pointer. So check if drv_data is valid before overwriting it.

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.
