Unity Linux 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-142554)

high Nessus Plugin ID 370861

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-2026-142554 advisory.

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

i2c: amd-mp2: Unregister callback on adapter add failure

amd_mp2_register_cb() stores the platform I2C context in the MP2 PCI driver's callback table before the adapter is registered. If i2c_add_adapter() fails, probe returns and devres frees the context, but the PCI driver can still dereference the stale pointer from its IRQ and system-sleep callbacks.

Unregister the callback before returning the adapter registration error.

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.
