"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-005808 advisory.

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

    ipv6: addrlabel: fix infoleak when sending struct ifaddrlblmsg to network

    When copying a `struct ifaddrlblmsg` to the network, __ifal_reserved
    remained uninitialized, resulting in a 1-byte infoleak:
