Unity Linux 20.1060a / 20.1070a Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-003867)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 288195

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-2026-003867 advisory.

A memory leak in the bnxt_re_create_srq() function in drivers/infiniband/hw/bnxt_re/ib_verbs.c in the Linux kernel through 5.3.11 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering copy to udata failures, aka CID-4a9d46a9fe14.

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.
