Unity Linux 20.1060e / 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-992388)

high Nessus Plugin ID 280244

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-2025-992388 advisory.

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

firmware: arm_scpi: Ensure scpi_info is not assigned if the probe fails

When scpi probe fails, at any point, we need to ensure that the scpi_info is not set and will remain NULL until the probe succeeds. If it is not taken care, then it could result use-after-free as the value is exported via get_scpi_ops() and could refer to a memory allocated via devm_kzalloc() but freed when the probe fails.

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.
