  script_set_attribute(attribute:"description", value:
"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-102116 advisory.

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

    fbdev: core: fbcvt: avoid division by 0 in fb_cvt_hperiod()

    In fb_find_mode_cvt(), iff mode->refresh somehow happens to be 0x80000000,
    cvt.f_refresh will become 0 when multiplying it by 2 due to overflow. It's
    then passed to fb_cvt_hperiod(), where it's used as a divider -- division
    by 0 will result in kernel oops. Add a sanity check for cvt.f_refresh to
    avoid such overflow...

    Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with the Svace static
    analysis tool.

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.");
