    In the commit
    d966ddcc3821 (tipc: fix a deadlock when flushing scheduled work),
    the cancel_work_sync() function just to make sure ONLY the work
    tipc_net_finalize_work() is executing/pending on any CPU completed before
    tipc namespace is destroyed through tipc_exit_net(). But this function
    is not guaranteed the work is the last queued. So, the destroyed instance
    may be accessed in the work which will try to enqueue later.

    In order to completely fix, we re-order the calling of cancel_work_sync()
    to make sure the work tipc_net_finalize_work() was last queued and it
    must be completed by calling cancel_work_sync().

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.");
