"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-003127 advisory.

    The overlayfs implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.5.2 does not properly restrict the mount
    namespace, which allows local users to gain privileges by mounting an overlayfs filesystem on top of a
    FUSE filesystem, and then executing a crafted setuid program.

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.");
