"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-007177 advisory.

    FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Versions on the 2.x branch prior to to
    2.11.8 and on the 3.x branch prior to 3.23.0 have an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the FreeRDP
    client's RDPGFX channel that allows a malicious RDP server to read uninitialized heap memory by sending a
    crafted WIRE_TO_SURFACE_2 PDU with a `bitmapDataLength` value larger than the actual data in the packet.
    This can lead to information disclosure or client crashes when a user connects to a malicious server.
    Versions 2.11.8 and 3.23.0 fix the issue.

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.");
