Unity Linux 20.1060e / 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-011055)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 308666

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-2026-011055 advisory.

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

USB: gadget: Fix the memory leak in raw_gadget driver

Currently, increasing raw_dev->count happens before invoke the raw_queue_event(), if the raw_queue_event() return error, invoke raw_release() will not trigger the dev_free() to be called.

BUG: memory leak

This commit therefore invoke kref_get() under the condition that raw_queue_event() return success.

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.
