Unity Linux 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-992696)
medium Nessus Plugin ID 280538
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-2025-992696 advisory.In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/rxe: Fix error unwind in rxe_create_qp()
In the function rxe_create_qp(), rxe_qp_from_init() is called to initialize qp, internally things like the spin locks are not setup until rxe_qp_init_req().
If an error occures before this point then the unwind will call rxe_cleanup() and eventually to rxe_qp_do_cleanup()/rxe_cleanup_task() which will oops when trying to access the uninitialized spinlock.
Move the spinlock initializations earlier before any failures.
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.See Also
