"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-006642 advisory.

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

    list: fix a data-race around ep->rdllist

    ep_poll() first calls ep_events_available() with no lock held and checks
    if ep->rdllist is empty by list_empty_careful(), which reads
    rdllist->prev.  Thus all accesses to it need some protection to avoid
    store/load-tearing.

    Note INIT_LIST_HEAD_RCU() already has the annotation for both prev
    and next.

    Commit bf3b9f6372c4 (epoll: Add busy poll support to epoll with socket
    fds.) added the first lockless ep_events_available(), and commit
    c5a282e9635e (fs/epoll: reduce the scope of wq lock in epoll_wait())
    made some ep_events_available() calls lockless and added single call under
    a lock, finally commit e59d3c64cba6 (epoll: eliminate unnecessary lock
    for zero timeout) made the last ep_events_available() lockless.

    BUG: KCSAN: data-race in do_epoll_wait / do_epoll_wait
