Unity Linux 20.1050e / 20.1060e / 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-151112)

high Nessus Plugin ID 378357

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-2026-151112 advisory.

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

dm: fix resume-vs-remove race

If the user issues the resume ioctl and the remove ioctl at the same time, it may be possible that the device is resumed after it is suspended in __dm_destroy. The result is that the table is destroyed without calling the postsuspend method.

Dm targets expect that they may be removed only after the postsuspend method method was called. If we break this expectation, it can cause misbehavior in various targets. For example - in the dm-integrity target, the reboot notifier is not unregistered, leading to use-after-free.

Fix this bug by refusing to resume if the device is being destroyed.

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.
