Unity Linux 20.1050e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-007504)

high Nessus Plugin ID 307206

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-2026-007504 advisory.

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

md: raid1: fix potential OOB in raid1_remove_disk()

If rddev->raid_disk is greater than mddev->raid_disks, there will be an out-of-bounds in raid1_remove_disk(). We have already found similar reports as follows:

1) commit d17f744e883b (md-raid10: fix KASAN warning) 2) commit 1ebc2cec0b7d (dm raid: fix KASAN warning in raid5_remove_disk)

Fix this bug by checking whether the number variable is valid.

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.
