"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-142508 advisory.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usx2y: bound the hwdep mmap fault offset
snd_us428ctls_vm_fault() turns the faulting page offset into a kernel
address with no bound of any kind:
offset = vmf->pgoff << PAGE_SHIFT;
vaddr = (char *)(...)->us428ctls_sharedmem + offset;
page = virt_to_page(vaddr);
get_page(page);
vmf->page = page;
return 0;
snd_us428ctls_mmap() checks only the length of the mapping, never the
offset, and us428ctls_sharedmem is a single page from
alloc_pages_exact(). For a character device file_mmap_size_max()
returns ULONG_MAX, so the mm layer imposes no ceiling either. Every page
offset above zero resolves to a struct page outside the object, and the
handler installs it into the caller's address space read-write; the vma
is not marked read-only.
The caller picks the page frame with a single mmap() argument and gets
read-write access to a page of kernel memory it does not own; an offset
that lands in an unpopulated vmemmap region oopses instead.
A process that can open the hwdep node of an attached US-X2Y reaches
this after loading the FPGA image through the same node; no capability
check is involved.
On 7.2.0-rc5 (arm64), mmap() with a large offset:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address fffffdffc45d5ac8
pc : snd_us428ctls_vm_fault+0x68/0x140 [snd_usb_usx2y]
Call trace:
snd_us428ctls_vm_fault+0x68/0x140 [snd_usb_usx2y]
__do_fault
__handle_mm_fault
handle_mm_fault
el0_da
Reject any offset outside the shared region. The pcm hwdep handler in
usx2yhwdeppcm.c computes its address the same way and needs the same
bound.
