Unity Linux 20.1050e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-007280)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 306953

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-2026-007280 advisory.

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

drm/bridge: adv7511: fix crash on irq during probe

Moved IRQ registration down to end of adv7511_probe().

If an IRQ already is pending during adv7511_probe (before adv7511_cec_init) then cec_received_msg_ts could crash using uninitialized data:

Unable to handle kernel read from unreadable memory at virtual address 00000000000003d5 Internal error: Oops: 96000004 [#1] PREEMPT_RT SMP Call trace:
cec_received_msg_ts+0x48/0x990 [cec] adv7511_cec_irq_process+0x1cc/0x308 [adv7511] adv7511_irq_process+0xd8/0x120 [adv7511] adv7511_irq_handler+0x1c/0x30 [adv7511] irq_thread_fn+0x30/0xa0 irq_thread+0x14c/0x238 kthread+0x190/0x1a8

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.
