"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2025-992835 advisory.

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

    media: mceusb: Use new usb_control_msg_*() routines

    Automatic kernel fuzzing led to a WARN about invalid pipe direction in
    the mceusb driver:

    mceusb_dev_probe+0x258e/0x33f0 drivers/media/rc/mceusb.c:1807

    The reason for the warning is clear enough; the driver sends an
    unusual read request on endpoint 0 but does not set the USB_DIR_IN bit
    in the bRequestType field.

    More importantly, the whole situation can be avoided and the driver
    simplified by converting it over to the relatively new
    usb_control_msg_recv() and usb_control_msg_send() routines.  That's
    what this fix does.

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.");
