"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-016786 advisory.

    Vulnerability in the OpenSSH GSSAPI delta included in various Linux distributions. This vulnerability
    affects the GSSAPI patches added by various Linux distributions and does not affect the OpenSSH upstream
    project itself. The usage of sshpkt_disconnect() on an error, which does not terminate the process, allows
    an attacker to send an unexpected GSSAPI message type during the GSSAPI key exchange to the server, which
    will call the underlying function and continue the execution of the program without setting the related
    connection variables. As the variables are not initialized to NULL the code later accesses those
    uninitialized variables, accessing random memory, which could lead to undefined behavior. The recommended
    workaround is to use ssh_packet_disconnect() instead, which does terminate the process. The impact of the
    vulnerability depends heavily on the compiler flag hardening configuration.

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
number.");
