Unity Linux 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-013128)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 308018

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-2026-013128 advisory.

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

media: av7110: prevent underflow in write_ts_to_decoder()

The buf[4] value comes from the user via ts_play(). It is a value in the u8 range. The final length we pass to av7110_ipack_instant_repack() is len - (buf[4] + 1) - 4 so add a check to ensure that the length is not negative. It's not clear that passing a negative len value does anything bad necessarily, but it's not best practice.

With the new bounds checking the if (!len) condition is no longer possible or required so remove that.

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.
