"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2025-989643 advisory.

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

    netfilter: nft_set_hash: unaligned atomic read on struct nft_set_ext

    Access to genmask field in struct nft_set_ext results in unaligned
    atomic read:

    Align struct nft_set_ext to word size to address this and
    documentation it.

    pahole reports that this increases the size of elements for rhash and
    pipapo in 8 bytes on x86_64.

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.");
