Unity Linux 20.1070a Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-989899)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 272904

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-2025-989899 advisory.

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

Bluetooth: Fix not cleanup led when bt_init fails

bt_init() calls bt_leds_init() to register led, but if it fails later, bt_leds_cleanup() is not called to unregister it.

This can cause panic if the argument bluetooth-power in text is freed and then another led_trigger_register() tries to access it:

BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffc06d3bc0 RIP: 0010:strcmp+0xc/0x30 Call Trace:
<TASK> led_trigger_register+0x10d/0x4f0 led_trigger_register_simple+0x7d/0x100 bt_init+0x39/0xf7 [bluetooth] do_one_initcall+0xd0/0x4e0

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.
