Unity Linux 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-011054)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 308611

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-2026-011054 advisory.

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

 qibfs: fix _another_ leak

 failure to allocate inode => leaked dentry...

 this one had been there since the initial merge; to be fair, if we are that far OOM, the odds of failing at that particular allocation are low...

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.
