"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-003752 advisory.

    The Linux kernel 4.x (starting from 4.1) and 5.x before 5.0.8 allows Information Exposure (partial kernel
    address disclosure), leading to a KASLR bypass. Specifically, it is possible to extract the KASLR kernel
    image offset using the IP ID values the kernel produces for connection-less protocols (e.g., UDP and
    ICMP). When such traffic is sent to multiple destination IP addresses, it is possible to obtain hash
    collisions (of indices to the counter array) and thereby obtain the hashing key (via enumeration). This
    key contains enough bits from a kernel address (of a static variable) so when the key is extracted (via
    enumeration), the offset of the kernel image is exposed. This attack can be carried out remotely, by the
    attacker forcing the target device to send UDP or ICMP (or certain other) traffic to attacker-controlled
    IP addresses. Forcing a server to send UDP traffic is trivial if the server is a DNS server. ICMP traffic
    is trivial if the server answers ICMP Echo requests (ping). For client targets, if the target visits the
    attacker's web page, then WebRTC or gQUIC can be used to force UDP traffic to attacker-controlled IP
    addresses. NOTE: this attack against KASLR became viable in 4.1 because IP ID generation was changed to
    have a dependency on an address associated with a network namespace.

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.");
