Unity Linux 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-005513)

high Nessus Plugin ID 300736

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-2026-005513 advisory.

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

 ocfs2: cancel dqi_sync_work before freeing oinfo

 ocfs2_global_read_info() will initialize and schedule dqi_sync_work at the end, if error occurs after successfully reading global quota, it will trigger the following warning with CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_* enabled:

 ODEBUG: free active (active state 0) object: 00000000d8b0ce28 object type: timer_list hint:
 qsync_work_fn+0x0/0x16c

 This reports that there is an active delayed work when freeing oinfo in error handling, so cancel dqi_sync_work first. BTW, return status instead of -1 when .read_file_info fails.

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.
