Unity Linux 20.1070a Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-013060)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 307740

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-2026-013060 advisory.

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

usb: gadget: f_eem: Fix memory leak in eem_unwrap

The existing code did not handle the failure case of usb_ep_queue in the command path, potentially leading to memory leaks.

Improve error handling to free all allocated resources on usb_ep_queue failure. This patch continues to use goto logic for error handling, as the existing error handling is complex and not easily adaptable to auto-cleanup helpers.

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.
