"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-011083 advisory.

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

    nilfs2: fix kernel-infoleak in nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy()

    The ioctl helper function nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy(), which exchanges a
    metadata array to/from user space, may copy uninitialized buffer regions
    to user space memory for read-only ioctl commands NILFS_IOCTL_GET_SUINFO
    and NILFS_IOCTL_GET_CPINFO.

    This can occur when the element size of the user space metadata given by
    the v_size member of the argument nilfs_argv structure is larger than the
    size of the metadata element (nilfs_suinfo structure or nilfs_cpinfo
    structure) on the file system side.

    KMSAN-enabled kernels detect this issue as follows:

     Bytes 16-127 of 3968 are uninitialized
     ...

    This eliminates the leak issue by initializing the page allocated as
    buffer using get_zeroed_page().

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
