medium Nessus Plugin ID 309092
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-2026-013405 advisory.In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix kernel bug on rename operation of broken directory
Syzbot reported that in rename directory operation on broken directory on nilfs2, __block_write_begin_int() called to prepare block write may fail BUG_ON check for access exceeding the folio/page size.
This is because nilfs_dotdot(), which gets parent directory reference entry (..) of the directory to be moved or renamed, does not check consistency enough, and may return location exceeding folio/page size for broken directories.
Fix this issue by checking required directory entries (. and ..) in the first chunk of the directory in nilfs_dotdot().
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.
