Unity Linux 20.1020e / 20.1050e / 20.1060e / 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-142533)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 370858

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-2026-142533 advisory.

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

vxlan: Fix potential null-ptr-deref in vxlan_gro_prepare_receive().

udp_tunnel_sock_release() could set sk->sk_user_data to NULL while vxlan_gro_prepare_receive() is running.

Let's check if rcu_dereference_sk_user_data() is NULL after skb_gro_remcsum_init().

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.
