"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2025-992726 advisory.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Squashfs: sanity check symbolic link size
Syzkiller reports a KMSAN: uninit-value in pick_link bug.
This is caused by an uninitialised page, which is ultimately caused
by a corrupted symbolic link size read from disk.
The reason why the corrupted symlink size causes an uninitialised
page is due to the following sequence of events:
1. squashfs_read_inode() is called to read the symbolic
link from disk. This assigns the corrupted value
3875536935 to inode->i_size.
2. Later squashfs_symlink_read_folio() is called, which assigns
this corrupted value to the length variable, which being a
signed int, overflows producing a negative number.
3. The following loop that fills in the page contents checks that
the copied bytes is less than length, which being negative means
the loop is skipped, producing an uninitialised page.
This patch adds a sanity check which checks that the symbolic
link size is not larger than expected.
