"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-011035 advisory.

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

    hwmon: (coretemp) Simplify platform device handling

    Coretemp's platform driver is unconventional. All the real work is done
    globally by the initcall and CPU hotplug notifiers, while the driver
    effectively just wraps an allocation and the registration of the hwmon
    interface in a long-winded round-trip through the driver core.  The whole
    logic of dynamically creating and destroying platform devices to bring
    the interfaces up and down is error prone, since it assumes
    platform_device_add() will synchronously bind the driver and set drvdata
    before it returns, thus results in a NULL dereference if drivers_autoprobe
    is turned off for the platform bus. Furthermore, the unusual approach of
    doing that from within a CPU hotplug notifier, already commented in the
    code that it deadlocks suspend, also causes lockdep issues for other
    drivers or subsystems which may want to legitimately register a CPU
    hotplug notifier from a platform bus notifier.

    All of these issues can be solved by ripping this unusual behaviour out
    completely, simply tying the platform devices to the lifetime of the
    module itself, and directly managing the hwmon interfaces from the
    hotplug notifiers. There is a slight user-visible change in that
    /sys/bus/platform/drivers/coretemp will no longer appear, and
    /sys/devices/platform/coretemp.n will remain present if package n is
    hotplugged off, but hwmon users should really only be looking for the
    presence of the hwmon interfaces, whose behaviour remains unchanged.

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.");
