"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-007602 advisory.

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

    KVM: x86: Don't (re)check L1 intercepts when completing userspace I/O

    When completing emulation of instruction that generated a userspace exit
    for I/O, don't recheck L1 intercepts as KVM has already finished that
    phase of instruction execution, i.e. has already committed to allowing L2
    to perform I/O.  If L1 (or host userspace) modifies the I/O permission
    bitmaps during the exit to userspace,  KVM will treat the access as being
    intercepted despite already having emulated the I/O access.

    Pivot on EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE to detect that KVM is completing emulation.
    Of the three users of EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE, only complete_emulated_io() (the
    intended recipient) can reach the code in question.  gp_interception()'s
    use is mutually exclusive with is_guest_mode(), and
    complete_emulated_insn_gp() unconditionally pairs EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE with
    EMULTYPE_SKIP.

    The bad behavior was detected by a syzkaller program that toggles port I/O
    interception during the userspace I/O exit, ultimately resulting in a WARN
    on vcpu->arch.pio.count being non-zero due to KVM no completing emulation
    of the I/O instruction.
