Unity Linux 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2025-001502)

high Nessus Plugin ID 341397

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-2025-001502 advisory.

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

 sh: intc: Fix use-after-free bug in register_intc_controller()

 In the error handling for this function, d is freed without ever removing it from intc_list which would lead to a use after free.
 To fix this, let's only add it to the list after everything has succeeded.

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.
