Unity Linux 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-989604)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 273892

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-2025-989604 advisory.

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

 media: stk1160: If start stream fails, return buffers with VB2_BUF_STATE_QUEUED

 If the callback 'start_streaming' fails, then all queued buffers in the driver should be returned with state 'VB2_BUF_STATE_QUEUED'. Currently, they are returned with 'VB2_BUF_STATE_ERROR' which is wrong.
 Fix this. This also fixes the warning:
