"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-102077 advisory.

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

    netfilter: revalidate bridge ports

    ebt_redirect_tg() dereferences br_port_get_rcu() return without a
    NULL check, causing a kernel panic when the bridge port has been
    removed between the original hook invocation and an NFQUEUE
    reinject.

    A mere NULL check isn't sufficient, however.  As sashiko review
    points out userspace can not only remove the port from the bridge,
    it could also place the device in a different virtual device, e.g.
    macvlan.

    If this happens, we must drop the packet, there is no way for us to
    reinject it into the bridge path.

    Switch to _upper API, we don't need the bridge port structure.
    Also, this fix keeps another bug intact:

    Both nfnetlink_log and nfnetlink_queue use CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER
    too aggressive, which prevents certain logging features when queueing
    in bridge family: NETFILTER_FAMILY_BRIDGE can be enabled while the old
    CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER cruft is off.

    Fixes tag is a common ancestor, this was always broken.

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.");
