An update of the linux package has been released.

The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2026-099709 advisory.

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

    octeontx2-pf: avoid double free of pool->stack on AQ init failure

    otx2_pool_aq_init() frees pool->stack when mailbox sync or retry     allocation fails, but leaves the pointer unchanged. Later,     otx2_sq_aura_pool_init() unwinds the partial setup through     otx2_aura_pool_free(), which frees pool->stack again. The CN20K-specific     cn20k_pool_aq_init() implementation has the same bug in     its corresponding error path.

    Set pool->stack to NULL immediately after the local free so the shared     cleanup path does not free the same stack again while cleaning up     partially initialized pool state.

    The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are     developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing     v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly     available. Manual inspection confirms that the bug is still present in     v7.1-rc3.

    Runtime validation was not performed because reproducing this path     requires OcteonTX2/CN20K hardware.

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.
