Unity Linux 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-005563)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 300586

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-2026-005563 advisory.

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

remoteproc: imx_rproc: Skip over memory region when node value is NULL

In imx_rproc_addr_init() nph = of_count_phandle_with_args() just counts number of phandles. But phandles may be empty. So of_parse_phandle() in the parsing loop (0 < a < nph) may return NULL which is later dereferenced.
Adjust this issue by adding NULL-return check.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

[Fixed title to fit within the prescribed 70-75 charcters]

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.
