medium Nessus Plugin ID 307280
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-2026-007324 advisory.In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: imxfb: Check fb_add_videomode to prevent null-ptr-deref
fb_add_videomode() can fail with -ENOMEM when its internal kmalloc() cannot allocate a struct fb_modelist. If that happens, the modelist stays empty but the driver continues to register. Add a check for its return value to prevent poteintial null-ptr-deref, which is similar to the commit 17186f1f90d3 (fbdev:
Fix do_register_framebuffer to prevent null-ptr-deref in fb_videomode_to_var).
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.
