"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-098799 advisory.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix missing last_unlink_trans update when removing a directory
When removing a directory we are not updating its last_unlink_trans field,
which can result in incorrect fsync behaviour in case some one fsyncs the
directory after it was removed because it's holding a file descriptor on
it.
Example scenario:
mkdir /mnt/dir1
mkdir /mnt/dir1/dir2
mkdir /mnt/dir3
sync -f /mnt
# Do some change to the directory and fsync it.
chmod 700 /mnt/dir1
xfs_io -c fsync /mnt/dir1
# Move dir2 out of dir1 so that dir1 becomes empty.
mv /mnt/dir1/dir2 /mnt/dir3/
open fd on /mnt/dir1
call rmdir(2) on path /mnt/dir1
fsync fd
<trigger power failure>
When attempting to mount the filesystem, the log replay will fail with
an -EIO error and dmesg/syslog has the following:
