"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-010776 advisory.

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

    ext4: detect invalid INLINE_DATA + EXTENTS flag combination

    syzbot reported a BUG_ON in ext4_es_cache_extent() when opening a verity
    file on a corrupted ext4 filesystem mounted without a journal.

    The issue is that the filesystem has an inode with both the INLINE_DATA
    and EXTENTS flags set:

        EXT4-fs error (device loop0): ext4_cache_extents:545: inode #15:
        comm syz.0.17: corrupted extent tree: lblk 0 < prev 66

    Investigation revealed that the inode has both flags set:
        DEBUG: inode 15 - flag=1, i_inline_off=164, has_inline=1, extents_flag=1

    This is an invalid combination since an inode should have either:
    - INLINE_DATA: data stored directly in the inode
    - EXTENTS: data stored in extent-mapped blocks

    Having both flags causes ext4_has_inline_data() to return true, skipping
    extent tree validation in __ext4_iget(). The unvalidated out-of-order
    extents then trigger a BUG_ON in ext4_es_cache_extent() due to integer
    underflow when calculating hole sizes.

    Fix this by detecting this invalid flag combination early in ext4_iget()
    and rejecting the corrupted inode.

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.");
