"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2025-986876 advisory.

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

    net: bridge: fix vlan tunnel dst refcnt when egressing

    The egress tunnel code uses dst_clone() and directly sets the result
    which is wrong because the entry might have 0 refcnt or be already deleted,
    causing number of problems. It also triggers the WARN_ON() in dst_hold()[1]
    when a refcnt couldn't be taken. Fix it by using dst_hold_safe() and
    checking if a reference was actually taken before setting the dst.

    [1] dmesg WARN_ON log and following refcnt errors
