medium Nessus Plugin ID 337296

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-2026-102000 advisory.

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

kprobes: avoid crash when rmmod/insmod after ftrace killed

After we hit ftrace is killed by some errors, the kernel crash if we remove modules in which kprobe probes.

This is because the kprobe on ftrace does not correctly handles the kprobe_ftrace_disabled flag set by ftrace_kill().

To prevent this error, check kprobe_ftrace_disabled in
__disarm_kprobe_ftrace() and skip all ftrace related operations.

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.
