"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-006705 advisory.

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

    tracing: Limit access to parser->buffer when trace_get_user failed

    When the length of the string written to set_ftrace_filter exceeds
    FTRACE_BUFF_MAX, the following KASAN alarm will be triggered:

    BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in strsep+0x18c/0x1b0
    Read of size 1 at addr ffff0000d00bd5ba by task ash/165

    CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 165 Comm: ash Not tainted 6.16.0-g6bcdbd62bd56-dirty
    Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT)
    Call trace:
     show_stack+0x34/0x50 (C)
     dump_stack_lvl+0xa0/0x158
     print_address_description.constprop.0+0x88/0x398
     print_report+0xb0/0x280
     kasan_report+0xa4/0xf0
     __asan_report_load1_noabort+0x20/0x30
     strsep+0x18c/0x1b0
     ftrace_process_regex.isra.0+0x100/0x2d8
     ftrace_regex_release+0x484/0x618
     __fput+0x364/0xa58

     el0t_64_sync_handler+0xa0/0xe8
     el0t_64_sync+0x1ac/0x1b0

    The reason is that trace_get_user will fail when processing a string
    longer than FTRACE_BUFF_MAX, but not set the end of parser->buffer to 0.
    Then an OOB access will be triggered in ftrace_regex_release->
    ftrace_process_regex->strsep->strpbrk. We can solve this problem by
    limiting access to parser->buffer when trace_get_user failed.

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.");
