UTSA-2026-000730 advisory.

    The fuse_fill_write_pages function in fs/fuse/file.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4 allows local users to
    cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a writev system call that triggers a zero length for the
    first segment of an iov.

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.");
