Unity Linux 20.1050e / 20.1060e / 20.1070e Security Update: kernel (UTSA-2026-151087)

high Nessus Plugin ID 378394

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-2026-151087 advisory.

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

ipvs: fix integer overflow in ftp helper port/address parsing

ip_vs_ftp_get_addrport() accumulates decimal digits into a __u16 (hport) and into unsigned char (p[]) without checking for overflow.
A crafted FTP PASV/EPSV response with an over-long port or address octet wraps the value, so the helper configures the data connection with a truncated port/address.

The netfilter conntrack FTP helper had the same defect, fixed in commit 2b413fc689ba (netfilter: nf_conntrack_ftp: avoid u16 overflows). Apply the equivalent fix here: widen the port accumulator to u32 and reject values above 65535, and reject address octets above 255.

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.
