Unity Linux 20.1050a Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-104614)

high Nessus Plugin ID 339581

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-2026-104614 advisory.

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

configfs: fix lockless traversals of ->s_children

Having the parent directory locked protects entries from removal by another thread, but it does *not* protect cursors from being moved around by lseek() - or freed, for that matter.

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.
