"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2025-992594 advisory.

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

    ubi: Fix unreferenced object reported by kmemleak in ubi_resize_volume()

    There is a memory leaks problem reported by kmemleak:

    unreferenced object 0xffff888102007a00 (size 128):
      comm ubirsvol, pid 32090, jiffies 4298464136 (age 2361.231s)
      hex dump (first 32 bytes):
    ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff  ................
    ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff  ................
      backtrace:
    [<ffffffff8176cecd>] __kmalloc+0x4d/0x150
    [<ffffffffa02a9a36>] ubi_eba_create_table+0x76/0x170 [ubi]
    [<ffffffffa029764e>] ubi_resize_volume+0x1be/0xbc0 [ubi]
    [<ffffffffa02a3321>] ubi_cdev_ioctl+0x701/0x1850 [ubi]
    [<ffffffff81975d2d>] __x64_sys_ioctl+0x11d/0x170
    [<ffffffff83c142a5>] do_syscall_64+0x35/0x80
    [<ffffffff83e0006a>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x46/0xb0

    This is due to a mismatch between create and destroy interfaces, and
    in detail that new_eba_tbl created by ubi_eba_create_table() but
    destroyed by kfree(), while will causing new_eba_tbl->entries not
    freed.

    Fix it by replacing kfree(new_eba_tbl) with
    ubi_eba_destroy_table(new_eba_tbl)

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.");
