"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2025-993299 advisory.

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

    erspan: do not use skb_mac_header() in ndo_start_xmit()

    Drivers should not assume skb_mac_header(skb) == skb->data in their
    ndo_start_xmit().

    Use skb_network_offset() and skb_transport_offset() which
    better describe what is needed in erspan_fb_xmit() and
    ip6erspan_tunnel_xmit()
