UTSA-2025-680589 advisory.

    Those using Woodstox to parse XML data may be vulnerable to Denial of Service attacks (DOS) if DTD support
    is enabled. If the parser is running on user supplied input, an attacker may supply content that causes
    the parser to crash by stackoverflow. This effect may support a denial of service attack.

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
