Unity Linux 20.1070a Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-005769)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 300959

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-2026-005769 advisory.

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

 ASoC: fsl_mqs: move of_node_put() to the correct location

 of_node_put() should have been done directly after mqs_priv->regmap = syscon_node_to_regmap(gpr_np);
 otherwise it creates a reference leak on the success path.

 To fix this, of_node_put() is moved to the correct location, and change all the gotos to direct returns.

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.
