"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-003475 advisory.

    The tcp_splice_read function in net/ipv4/tcp.c in the Linux kernel before 4.9.11 allows remote attackers
    to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and soft lockup) via vectors involving a TCP packet with the
    URG flag.

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.");
