"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-013236 advisory.

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

    bpf, sockmap: fix race in sock_map_free()

    sock_map_free() calls release_sock(sk) without owning a reference
    on the socket. This can cause use-after-free as syzbot found [1]

    Jakub Sitnicki already took care of a similar issue
    in sock_hash_free() in commit 75e68e5bf2c7 (bpf, sockhash:
    Synchronize delete from bucket list on map free)
