"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2025-990294 advisory.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp_bpf: Fix the sk_mem_uncharge logic in tcp_bpf_sendmsg
The current sk memory accounting logic in __SK_REDIRECT is pre-uncharging
tosend bytes, which is either msg->sg.size or a smaller value apply_bytes.
Potential problems with this strategy are as follows:
- If the actual sent bytes are smaller than tosend, we need to charge some
bytes back, as in line 487, which is okay but seems not clean.
- When tosend is set to apply_bytes, as in line 417, and (ret < 0), we may
miss uncharging (msg->sg.size - apply_bytes) bytes.
[...]
415 tosend = msg->sg.size;
416 if (psock->apply_bytes && psock->apply_bytes < tosend)
417 tosend = psock->apply_bytes;
[...]
443 sk_msg_return(sk, msg, tosend);
444 release_sock(sk);
446 origsize = msg->sg.size;
447 ret = tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir(sk_redir, redir_ingress,
448 msg, tosend, flags);
449 sent = origsize - msg->sg.size;
[...]
454 lock_sock(sk);
455 if (unlikely(ret < 0)) {
456 int free = sk_msg_free_nocharge(sk, msg);
458 if (!cork)
459 *copied -= free;
460 }
[...]
487 if (eval == __SK_REDIRECT)
488 sk_mem_charge(sk, tosend - sent);
[...]
When running the selftest test_txmsg_redir_wait_sndmem with txmsg_apply,
the following warning will be reported:

In __SK_REDIRECT, a more concise way is delaying the uncharging after sent
bytes are finalized, and uncharge this value. When (ret < 0), we shall
invoke sk_msg_free.
Same thing happens in case __SK_DROP, when tosend is set to apply_bytes,
we may miss uncharging (msg->sg.size - apply_bytes) bytes. The same
warning will be reported in selftest.
[...]
468 case __SK_DROP:
469 default:
470 sk_msg_free_partial(sk, msg, tosend);
471 sk_msg_apply_bytes(psock, tosend);
472 *copied -= (tosend + delta);
473 return -EACCES;
[...]
So instead of sk_msg_free_partial we can do sk_msg_free here.
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
