  script_set_attribute(attribute:"description", value:
"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-006154 advisory.

    If an attacker causes kdcproxy to connect to an attacker-controlled KDC server (e.g. through server-side
    request forgery), they can exploit the fact that kdcproxy does not enforce bounds on TCP response length
    to conduct a denial-of-service attack. While receiving the KDC's response, kdcproxy copies the entire
    buffered stream into a new
    buffer on each recv() call, even when the transfer is incomplete, causing excessive memory allocation and
    CPU usage. Additionally, kdcproxy accepts incoming response chunks as long as the received data length is
    not exactly equal to the length indicated in the response
    header, even when individual chunks or the total buffer exceed the maximum length of a Kerberos message.
    This allows an attacker to send unbounded data until the connection timeout is reached (approximately 12
    seconds), exhausting server memory or CPU resources. Multiple concurrent requests can cause accept queue
    overflow, denying service to legitimate clients.

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.");
