Unity Linux 20.1050e / 20.1060e / 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-107309)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 344919

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-2026-107309 advisory.

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

drm/amd/display: Check null pointers before used

[WHAT & HOW] Poniters, such as dc->clk_mgr, are null checked previously in the same function, so Coverity warns implies that dc->clk_mgr might be null.
As a result, these pointers need to be checked when used again.

This fixes 10 FORWARD_NULL issues reported by Coverity.

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.
