medium Nessus Plugin ID 280166

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-2025-992447 advisory.

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

 f2fs: fix to avoid use f2fs_bug_on() in f2fs_new_node_page()

 As Dipanjan Das <[email protected]> reported, syzkaller found a f2fs bug as below:

 RIP: 0010:f2fs_new_node_page+0x19ac/0x1fc0 fs/f2fs/node.c:1295 Call Trace:

 NAT entry and nat bitmap can be inconsistent, e.g. one nid is free in nat bitmap, and blkaddr in its NAT entry is not NULL_ADDR, it may trigger BUG_ON() in f2fs_new_node_page(), fix 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.
