"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-004271 advisory.

    An issue was discovered in can_can_gw_rcv in net/can/gw.c in the Linux kernel through 4.19.13. The CAN
    frame modification rules allow bitwise logical operations that can be also applied to the can_dlc field.
    The privileged user root with CAP_NET_ADMIN can create a CAN frame modification rule that makes the data
    length code a higher value than the available CAN frame data size. In combination with a configured
    checksum calculation where the result is stored relatively to the end of the data (e.g. cgw_csum_xor_rel)
    the tail of the skb (e.g. frag_list pointer in skb_shared_info) can be rewritten which finally can cause a
    system crash. Because of a missing check, the CAN drivers may write arbitrary content beyond the data
    registers in the CAN controller's I/O memory when processing can-gw manipulated outgoing frames.

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.");
