UTSA-2026-017793 advisory.

    Netty before 4.1.42.Final mishandles whitespace before the colon in HTTP headers (such as a Transfer-
    Encoding : chunked line), which leads to HTTP request smuggling.

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.");
