Unity Linux 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-142535)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 370833

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-2026-142535 advisory.

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

ipvs: do not propagate one-packet flag to synced conns

Synced connections can be created before their destination exists. When the destination is later added, ip_vs_bind_dest() copies connection flags from the destination into cp->flags.

IP_VS_CONN_F_ONE_PACKET connections are not synced. If a synced connection inherits IP_VS_CONN_F_ONE_PACKET while it is already hashed, expiry can treat it as a one-packet connection and skip unlinking the existing conn_tab node, leaving stale hash nodes pointing at a freed struct ip_vs_conn.

Drop IP_VS_CONN_F_ONE_PACKET from destination flags when binding synced connections.

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.
