The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2026-003279 advisory.

    Integer overflow in the mem_check_range function in drivers/infiniband/sw/rxe/rxe_mr.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.9.10 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption), obtain sensitive     information from kernel memory, or possibly have unspecified other impact via a write or read request     involving the RDMA protocol over infiniband (aka Soft RoCE) technology.

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.

According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - drivers/gpu/msm/kgsl.c in the MSM graphics driver (aka     GPU driver) for the Linux kernel 3.x, as used in     Qualcomm Innovation Center (QuIC) Android contributions     for MSM devices and other products, mishandles the     KGSL_MEMFLAGS_GPUREADONLY flag, which allows attackers     to gain privileges by leveraging accidental read-write     mappings, aka Qualcomm internal bug     CR988993.(CVE-2016-2067i1/4%0

  - Integer overflow in the mem_check_range function in     drivers/infiniband/sw/rxe/rxe_mr.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.9.10 allows local users to cause a denial of     service (memory corruption), obtain sensitive     information from kernel memory, or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a write or read request     involving the 'RDMA protocol over infiniband' (aka Soft     RoCE) technology.(CVE-2016-8636i1/4%0

  - Heap-based buffer overflow in the     logi_dj_ll_raw_request function in     drivers/hid/hid-logitech-dj.c in the Linux kernel     before 3.16.2 allows physically proximate attackers to     cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly     execute arbitrary code via a crafted device that     specifies a large report size for an LED     report.(CVE-2014-3183i1/4%0

  - The futex_requeue function in kernel/futex.c in the     Linux kernel, before 4.14.15, might allow attackers to     cause a denial of service (integer overflow) or     possibly have unspecified other impacts by triggering a     negative wake or requeue value. Due to the nature of     the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled     out, although we believe it is     unlikely.(CVE-2018-6927i1/4%0

  - The hub_activate function in drivers/usb/core/hub.c in     the Linux kernel before 4.3.5 does not properly     maintain a hub-interface data structure, which allows     physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of     service (invalid memory access and system crash) or     possibly have unspecified other impact by unplugging a     USB hub device.(CVE-2015-8816i1/4%0

  - It was found that the blk_rq_map_user_iov() function in     the Linux kernel's block device implementation did not     properly restrict the type of iterator, which could     allow a local attacker to read or write to arbitrary     kernel memory locations or cause a denial of service     (use-after-free) by leveraging write access to a     /dev/sg device.(CVE-2016-9576i1/4%0

  - A security flaw was found in the Linux kernel's     networking subsystem that destroying the network     interface with huge number of ipv4 addresses assigned     keeps 'rtnl_lock' spinlock for a very long time (up to     hour). This blocks many network-related operations,     including creation of new incoming ssh connections.The     problem is especially important for containers, as the     container owner has enough permissions to trigger this     and block a network access on a whole host, outside the     container.(CVE-2016-3156i1/4%0

  - The edge_bulk_in_callback function in     drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c in the Linux kernel allows     local users to obtain sensitive information (in the     dmesg ringbuffer and syslog) from uninitialized kernel     memory by using a crafted USB device (posing as an     io_ti USB serial device) to trigger an integer     underflow.(CVE-2017-8924i1/4%0

  - The IPv4 implementation in the Linux kernel before     3.18.8 does not properly consider the length of the     Read-Copy Update (RCU) grace period for redirecting     lookups in the absence of caching, which allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (memory     consumption or system crash) via a flood of     packets.(CVE-2015-1465i1/4%0

  - A symlink size validation was missing in Linux kernels     built with UDF file system (CONFIG_UDF_FS) support,     allowing the corruption of kernel memory. An attacker     able to mount a corrupted/malicious UDF file system     image could cause the kernel to crash.(CVE-2014-9728i1/4%0

  - net/ipv6/ip6_output.c in the Linux kernel through     3.11.4 does not properly determine the need for UDP     Fragmentation Offload (UFO) processing of small packets     after the UFO queueing of a large packet, which allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory     corruption and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via network traffic that     triggers a large response packet.(CVE-2013-4387i1/4%0

  - It was found that nfsd is missing permissions check     when setting ACL on files, this may allow a local users     to gain access to any file by setting a crafted     ACL.(CVE-2016-1237i1/4%0

  - In the Linux kernel before 4.13.5, a local user could     create keyrings for other users via keyctl commands,     setting unwanted defaults or causing a denial of     service.(CVE-2017-18270i1/4%0

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel where an     integer overflow in kernel/time/posix-timers.c in the     POSIX timer code is caused by the way the overrun     accounting works. Depending on interval and expiry time     values, the overrun can be larger than INT_MAX, but the     accounting is int based. This basically makes the     accounting values, which are visible to user space via     timer_getoverrun(2) and siginfo::si_overrun,     random.(CVE-2018-12896i1/4%0

  - Since Linux kernel version 3.2, the mremap() syscall     performs TLB flushes after dropping pagetable locks. If     a syscall such as ftruncate() removes entries from the     pagetables of a task that is in the middle of mremap(),     a stale TLB entry can remain for a short time that     permits access to a physical page after it has been     released back to the page allocator and reused. This is     fixed in the following kernel versions: 4.9.135,     4.14.78, 4.18.16, 4.19.(CVE-2018-18281i1/4%0

  - The netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel through     4.15.7 mishandles the case of a rule blob that contains     a jump but lacks a user-defined chain, which allows     local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference) by leveraging the CAP_NET_RAW or     CAP_NET_ADMIN capability, related to arpt_do_table in     net/ipv4/netfilter/arp_tables.c, ipt_do_table in     net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c, and ip6t_do_table in     net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6_tables.c.(CVE-2018-1065i1/4%0

  - The use of a kzalloc with an integer multiplication     allowed an integer overflow condition to be reached in     vfio_pci_intrs.c. This combined with CVE-2016-9083 may     allow an attacker to craft an attack and use     unallocated memory, potentially crashing the     machine.(CVE-2016-9084i1/4%0

  - The acm_probe function in drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c     in the Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically     proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL     pointer dereference and system crash) via a USB device     without both a control and a data endpoint     descriptor.(CVE-2016-3138i1/4%0

  - It was discovered that root can gain direct access to     an internal keyring, such as '.dns_resolver' in RHEL-7     or '.builtin_trusted_keys' upstream, by joining it as     its session keyring. This allows root to bypass module     signature verification by adding a new public key of     its own devising to the keyring.(CVE-2016-9604i1/4%0

  - An information leak flaw was found in the Linux     kernel's IEEE 802.11 wireless networking     implementation. When software encryption was used, a     remote attacker could use this flaw to leak up to 8     bytes of plaintext.(CVE-2014-8709i1/4%0

The following security bugs were fixed: CVE-2018-1128: It was found that cephx authentication protocol did not verify ceph clients correctly and was vulnerable to replay attack. Any attacker having access to ceph cluster network who is able to sniff packets on network could use this vulnerability to authenticate with ceph service and perform actions allowed by ceph service. (bnc#1096748).

CVE-2018-1129: A flaw was found in the way signature calculation was handled by cephx authentication protocol. An attacker having access to ceph cluster network who is able to alter the message payload was able to bypass signature checks done by cephx protocol. (bnc#1096748).

CVE-2016-8636: Integer overflow in the mem_check_range function in drivers/infiniband/sw/rxe/rxe_mr.c allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption), obtain sensitive information or possibly have unspecified other impact via a write or read request involving the 'RDMA protocol over infiniband' (aka Soft RoCE) technology (bnc#1024908).

CVE-2017-18174: In the amd_gpio_remove function in drivers/pinctrl/pinctrl-amd.c calls the pinctrl_unregister function, leading to a double free (bnc#1080533).

CVE-2018-1091: In the flush_tmregs_to_thread function in arch/powerpc/kernel/ptrace.c, a guest kernel crash can be triggered from unprivileged userspace during a core dump on a POWER host due to a missing processor feature check and an erroneous use of transactional memory (TM) instructions in the core dump path, leading to a denial of service (bnc#1087231).

CVE-2018-1120: By mmap()ing a FUSE-backed file onto a process's memory containing command line arguments (or environment strings), an attacker can cause utilities from psutils or procps (such as ps, w) or any other program which made a read() call to the /proc/<pid>/cmdline (or /proc/<pid>/environ) files to block indefinitely (denial of service) or for some controlled time (as a synchronization primitive for other attacks) (bnc#1093158). </pid></pid>

CVE-2019-11486: The Siemens R3964 line discipline driver in drivers/tty/n_r3964.c has multiple race conditions (bnc#1133188).

CVE-2019-3882: A flaw was found in the vfio interface implementation that permits violation of the user's locked memory limit. If a device is bound to a vfio driver, such as vfio-pci, and the local attacker is administratively granted ownership of the device, it may cause a system memory exhaustion and thus a denial of service (DoS) (bsc#1131427).

CVE-2018-19407: The vcpu_scan_ioapic function in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c allowed local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and BUG) via crafted system calls that reach a situation where ioapic is uninitialized (bnc#1116841).

CVE-2017-17741: The KVM implementation allowed attackers to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel memory, aka a write_mmio stack-based out-of-bounds read, related to arch/x86/kvm/x86.c and include/trace/events/kvm.h (bnc#1073311).

CVE-2019-9503, CVE-2019-8564: Multiple brcmfmac frame validation bypasses have been fixed (bnc#1132828, bnc#1132673).

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.
