high Nessus Plugin ID 280518

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-2025-992513 advisory.

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

 net: atlantic: fix aq_vec index out of range error

 The final update statement of the for loop exceeds the array range, the dereference of self->aq_vec[i] is not checked and then leads to the index out of range error.
 Also fixed this kind of coding style in other for loop.

 v2. fixed warning: variable 'aq_vec' set but not used

 v3. simplified a for loop

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.
