"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-007403 advisory.

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

    ext4: fix memory leak in ext4_fill_super

    Buffer head references must be released before calling kill_bdev();
    otherwise the buffer head (and its page referenced by b_data) will not
    be freed by kill_bdev, and subsequently that bh will be leaked.

    If blocksizes differ, sb_set_blocksize() will kill current buffers and
    page cache by using kill_bdev(). And then super block will be reread
    again but using correct blocksize this time. sb_set_blocksize() didn't
    fully free superblock page and buffer head, and being busy, they were
    not freed and instead leaked.

    This can easily be reproduced by calling an infinite loop of:

      systemctl start <ext4_on_lvm>.mount, and
      systemctl stop <ext4_on_lvm>.mount

    ... since systemd creates a cgroup for each slice which it mounts, and
    the bh leak get amplified by a dying memory cgroup that also never
    gets freed, and memory consumption is much more easily noticed.

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.");
