Unity Linux 20.1060e / 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-011082)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 308769

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-2026-011082 advisory.

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

rapidio: rio: fix possible name leak in rio_register_mport()

If device_register() returns error, the name allocated by dev_set_name() need be freed. It should use put_device() to give up the reference in the error path, so that the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup(), and list_del() is called to delete the port from rio_mports.

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.
