Unity Linux 20.1050e / 20.1060e / 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-107266)

high Nessus Plugin ID 344917

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-2026-107266 advisory.

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

btrfs: fix extent map use-after-free when handling missing device in read_one_chunk

Store the error code before freeing the extent_map. Though it's reference counted structure, in that function it's the first and last allocation so this would lead to a potential use-after-free.

The error can happen eg. when chunk is stored on a missing device and the degraded mount option is missing.

Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216721

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.
