"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-003001 advisory.

    A security flaw was found in the chap_server_compute_md5() function in the ISCSI target code in the Linux
    kernel in a way an authentication request from an ISCSI initiator is processed. An unauthenticated remote
    attacker can cause a stack buffer overflow and smash up to 17 bytes of the stack. The attack requires the
    iSCSI target to be enabled on the victim host. Depending on how the target's code was built (i.e.
    depending on a compiler, compile flags and hardware architecture) an attack may lead to a system crash and
    thus to a denial-of-service or possibly to a non-authorized access to data exported by an iSCSI target.
    Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is
    highly unlikely. Kernel versions 4.18.x, 4.14.x and 3.10.x are believed to be vulnerable.

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.");
