"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2025-992556 advisory.

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

    hwmon: (gpio-fan) Fix array out of bounds access

    The driver does not check if the cooling state passed to
    gpio_fan_set_cur_state() exceeds the maximum cooling state as
    stored in fan_data->num_speeds. Since the cooling state is later
    used as an array index in set_fan_speed(), an array out of bounds
    access can occur.
    This can be exploited by setting the state of the thermal cooling device
    to arbitrary values, causing for example a kernel oops when unavailable
    memory is accessed this way.

    Example kernel oops:
