"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2025-383538 advisory.

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

    serial: max3100: Update uart_driver_registered on driver removal

    The removal of the last MAX3100 device triggers the removal of
    the driver. However, code doesn't update the respective global
    variable and after insmod  rmmod  insmod cycle the kernel
    oopses:

      max3100 spi-PRP0001:01: max3100_probe: adding port 0
      BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000408
      ...
      RIP: 0010:serial_core_register_port+0xa0/0x840
      ...
       max3100_probe+0x1b6/0x280 [max3100]
       spi_probe+0x8d/0xb0

    Update the actual state so next time UART driver will be registered
    again.

    Hugo also noticed, that the error path in the probe also affected
    by having the variable set, and not cleared. Instead of clearing it
    move the assignment after the successfull uart_register_driver() call.

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.");
