"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-007453 advisory.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ip6_vti: fix slab-use-after-free in decode_session6
When ipv6_vti device is set to the qdisc of the sfb type, the cb field
of the sent skb may be modified during enqueuing. Then,
slab-use-after-free may occur when ipv6_vti device sends IPv6 packets.
The stack information is as follows:

The buggy address belongs to the object at ffff88802e08ed00
which belongs to the cache skbuff_small_head of size 640
The buggy address is located 194 bytes inside of
freed 640-byte region [ffff88802e08ed00, ffff88802e08ef80)
As commit f855691975bb (xfrm6: Fix the nexthdr offset in
_decode_session6.) showed, xfrm_decode_session was originally intended
only for the receive path. IP6CB(skb)->nhoff is not set during
transmission. Therefore, set the cb field in the skb to 0 before
sending packets.
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.");
