Unity Linux 20.1060e / 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-992222)

high Nessus Plugin ID 280668

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-2025-992222 advisory.

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

drm/amdkfd: Fix UBSAN shift-out-of-bounds warning

If get_num_sdma_queues or get_num_xgmi_sdma_queues is 0, we end up doing a shift operation where the number of bits shifted equals number of bits in the operand. This behaviour is undefined.

Set num_sdma_queues or num_xgmi_sdma_queues to ULLONG_MAX, if the count is >= number of bits in the operand.

Bug: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/1472

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.
