"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-002149 advisory.

    The (1) get_user and (2) put_user API functions in the Linux kernel before 3.5.5 on the v6k and v7 ARM
    platforms do not validate certain addresses, which allows attackers to read or modify the contents of
    arbitrary kernel memory locations via a crafted application, as exploited in the wild against Android
    devices in October and November 2013.

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.");
