"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-005158 advisory.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    RDMA/iwcm: Fix WARNING:at_kernel/workqueue.c:#check_flush_dependency

    In the commit aee2424246f9 (RDMA/iwcm: Fix a use-after-free related to
    destroying CM IDs), the function flush_workqueue is invoked to flush the
    work queue iwcm_wq.

    But at that time, the work queue iwcm_wq was created via the function
    alloc_ordered_workqueue without the flag WQ_MEM_RECLAIM.

    Because the current process is trying to flush the whole iwcm_wq, if
    iwcm_wq doesn't have the flag WQ_MEM_RECLAIM, verify that the current
    process is not reclaiming memory or running on a workqueue which doesn't
    have the flag WQ_MEM_RECLAIM as that can break forward-progress guarantee
    leading to a deadlock.

    The call trace is as below:
