"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-146683 advisory.

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

    power: supply: charger-manager: register regulators before exposing sysfs

    charger_manager_remove() and the err_reg_extcon probe error path free each
    charger regulator with regulator_put() before tearing down the power_supply
    sysfs entries (power_supply_unregister()). charger_manager_remove() also
    calls try_charger_enable(cm, false) after the regulator_put() loop. A
    concurrent write to a charger's externally_control sysfs attribute that
    lands between regulator_put() and power_supply_unregister() can run
    charger_externally_control_store() and call try_charger_enable(), which,
    when charging is enabled, dereferences the already-freed consumer handle.
    When charging is enabled, try_charger_enable(cm, false) in .remove() also
    dereferences the freed handles directly. Both leave use-after-free windows.
    Symmetrically, probe registers the sysfs entries (power_supply_register)
    before acquiring the regulators (regulator_get, inside
    charger_manager_register_extcon), so userspace can reach externally_control
    before the regulators are available.

    Split charger_manager_register_extcon() on the sync/async boundary:
    charger_manager_get_regulators() (regulator_get only, no async producer)
    now runs before power_supply_register() so sysfs is not live before
    regulators are available, and charger_manager_register_extcon() keeps only
    the extcon notifier/work setup, still after power_supply_register() so a
    power_supply_register() failure cannot reach extcon setup. This keeps the
    sysfs setup/teardown ordering symmetric without introducing an asynchronous
    producer on the earlier probe-error path.

    Move power_supply_unregister() and try_charger_enable(cm, false) ahead of
    the regulator_put() loop on both teardown paths, and adjust err_reg_extcon
    (power_supply_unregister() then fall through err_regulator for
    regulator_put(); get_regulators self-rolls back on its own failure).

    This does not address the separate extcon-notifier-driven deref of the same
    handles, which needs its own synchronization design.

    Found by an in-house static analysis tool.
