"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-010782 advisory.

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

    seccomp: Move copy_seccomp() to no failure path.

    Our syzbot instance reported memory leaks in do_seccomp() [0], similar
    to the report [1].  It shows that we miss freeing struct seccomp_filter
    and some objects included in it.

    We can reproduce the issue with the program below [2] which calls one
    seccomp() and two clone() syscalls.

    The first clone()d child exits earlier than its parent and sends a
    signal to kill it during the second clone(), more precisely before the
    fatal_signal_pending() test in copy_process().  When the parent receives
    the signal, it has to destroy the embryonic process and return -EINTR to
    user space.  In the failure path, we have to call seccomp_filter_release()
    to decrement the filter's refcount.

    Initially, we called it in free_task() called from the failure path, but
    the commit 3a15fb6ed92c (seccomp: release filter after task is fully
    dead) moved it to release_task() to notify user space as early as possible
    that the filter is no longer used.

    To keep the change and current seccomp refcount semantics, let's move
    copy_seccomp() just after the signal check and add a WARN_ON_ONCE() in
    free_task() for future debugging.
