Unity Linux 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-013234)

high Nessus Plugin ID 308072

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-2026-013234 advisory.

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

mtd: rawnand: brcmnand: Fix potential out-of-bounds access in oob write

When the oob buffer length is not in multiple of words, the oob write function does out-of-bounds read on the oob source buffer at the last iteration. Fix that by always checking length limit on the oob buffer read and fill with 0xff when reaching the end of the buffer to the oob registers.

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.
