"The Unity Linux host is missing one or more security updates.");
  script_set_attribute(attribute:"description", value:
"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-013041 advisory.

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

    mptcp: Fix proto fallback detection with BPF

    The sockmap feature allows bpf syscall from userspace, or based
    on bpf sockops, replacing the sk_prot of sockets during protocol stack
    processing with sockmap's custom read/write interfaces.
    '''
    tcp_rcv_state_process()
      syn_recv_sock()/subflow_syn_recv_sock()
        tcp_init_transfer(BPF_SOCK_OPS_PASSIVE_ESTABLISHED_CB)
          bpf_skops_established       <== sockops
            bpf_sock_map_update(sk)   <== call bpf helper
              tcp_bpf_update_proto()  <== update sk_prot
    '''

    When the server has MPTCP enabled but the client sends a TCP SYN
    without MPTCP, subflow_syn_recv_sock() performs a fallback on the
    subflow, replacing the subflow sk's sk_prot with the native sk_prot.
    '''
    subflow_syn_recv_sock()
      subflow_ulp_fallback()
        subflow_drop_ctx()
          mptcp_subflow_ops_undo_override()
    '''

    Then, this subflow can be normally used by sockmap, which replaces the
    native sk_prot with sockmap's custom sk_prot. The issue occurs when the
    user executes accept::mptcp_stream_accept::mptcp_fallback_tcp_ops().
    Here, it uses sk->sk_prot to compare with the native sk_prot, but this
    is incorrect when sockmap is used, as we may incorrectly set
    sk->sk_socket->ops.

    This fix uses the more generic sk_family for the comparison instead.

    Additionally, this also prevents a WARNING from occurring:

    result from ./scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh:
