Unity Linux 20.1050e / 20.1060e / 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-107296)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 344935

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-2026-107296 advisory.

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

drm/amd/display: Check null pointers before multiple uses

[WHAT & HOW] Poniters, such as stream_enc and dc->bw_vbios, are null checked previously in the same function, so Coverity warns implies that stream_enc and dc->bw_vbios might be null. They are used multiple times in the subsequent code and need to be checked.

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.
