"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2025-991275 advisory.
expat before version 2.4.0 does not properly handle entities expansion unless an application developer
uses the XML_SetEntityDeclHandler function, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(resource consumption), send HTTP requests to intranet servers, or read arbitrary files via a crafted XML
document, aka an XML External Entity (XXE) issue. NOTE: it could be argued that because expat already
provides the ability to disable external entity expansion, the responsibility for resolving this issue
lies with application developers; according to this argument, this entry should be REJECTed, and each
affected application would need its own CVE.
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.");
