Unity Linux 20.1060e / 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-992295)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 280472

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-2025-992295 advisory.

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

 iio: light: isl29028: Fix the warning in isl29028_remove()

 The driver use the non-managed form of the register function in isl29028_remove(). To keep the release order as mirroring the ordering in probe, the driver should use non-managed form in probe, too.

 The following log reveals it:

 [ 32.374955] isl29028 0-0010: remove [ 32.376861] general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000006: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI [ 32.377676] KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000030-0x0000000000000037] [ 32.379432] RIP: 0010:kernfs_find_and_get_ns+0x28/0xe0 [ 32.385461] Call Trace:

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
