Unity Linux 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-131726)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 366562

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-2026-131726 advisory.

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

fs/ntfs3: Fix missing i_op in ntfs_read_mft

There is null pointer dereference because i_op == NULL.
The bug happens because we don't initialize i_op for records in $Extend.

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.
