Unity Linux 20.1050a Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-100344)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 336425

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-2026-100344 advisory.

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

drm/atmel-hlcdc: fix memory leak from the atomic_destroy_state callback

After several commits, the slab memory increases. Some drm_crtc_commit objects are not freed. The atomic_destroy_state callback only put the framebuffer. Use the __drm_atomic_helper_plane_destroy_state() function to put all the objects that are no longer needed.

It has been seen after hours of usage of a graphics application or using kmemleak:

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.
