"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-101969 advisory.

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

    netfilter: require Ethernet MAC header before using eth_hdr()

    `ip6t_eui64`, `xt_mac`, the `bitmap:ip,mac`, `hash:ip,mac`, and
    `hash:mac` ipset types, and `nf_log_syslog` access `eth_hdr(skb)`
    after either assuming that the skb is associated with an Ethernet
    device or checking only that the `ETH_HLEN` bytes at
    `skb_mac_header(skb)` lie between `skb->head` and `skb->data`.

    Make these paths first verify that the skb is associated with an
    Ethernet device, that the MAC header was set, and that it spans at
    least a full Ethernet header before accessing `eth_hdr(skb)`.

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.");
