"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-013435 advisory.

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

    mm/secretmem: fix NULL page->mapping dereference in page_is_secretmem()

    Check for a NULL page->mapping before dereferencing the mapping in
    page_is_secretmem(), as the page's mapping can be nullified while gup()
    is running, e.g.  by reclaim or truncation.
