Unity Linux 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-010904)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 308373

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-2026-010904 advisory.

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

scsi: lpfc: Use memcpy() for BIOS version

The strlcat() with FORTIFY support is triggering a panic because it thinks the target buffer will overflow although the correct target buffer size is passed in.

Anyway, instead of memset() with 0 followed by a strlcat(), just use memcpy() and ensure that the resulting buffer is NULL terminated.

BIOSVersion is only used for the lpfc_printf_log() which expects a properly terminated string.

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.
