"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the

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

    wireguard: receive: annotate data-race around receiving_counter.counter

    Syzkaller with KCSAN identified a data-race issue when accessing
    keypair->receiving_counter.counter. Use READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE()
    annotations to mark the data race as intentional.
