"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-005757 advisory.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: Add lwtunnel encap size of all siblings in nexthop calculation
In function rt6_nlmsg_size(), the length of nexthop is calculated
by multipling the nexthop length of fib6_info and the number of
siblings. However if the fib6_info has no lwtunnel but the siblings
have lwtunnels, the nexthop length is less than it should be, and
it will trigger a warning in inet6_rt_notify() as follows:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 6082 at net/ipv6/route.c:6180 inet6_rt_notify+0x120/0x130
......
Call Trace:

This bug can be reproduced by script:
ip -6 addr add 2002::2/64 dev ens2
ip -6 route add 100::/64 via 2002::1 dev ens2 metric 100
for i in 10 20 30 40 50 60 70;
do
ip link add link ens2 name ipv_$i type ipvlan
ip -6 addr add 2002::$i/64 dev ipv_$i
ifconfig ipv_$i up
done
for i in 10 20 30 40 50 60;
do
ip -6 route append 100::/64 encap ip6 dst 2002::$i via 2002::1
dev ipv_$i metric 100
done
ip -6 route append 100::/64 via 2002::1 dev ipv_70 metric 100
This patch fixes it by adding nexthop_len of every siblings using
rt6_nh_nlmsg_size().
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.");
