"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-102706 advisory.

    Go JOSE provides an implementation of the Javascript Object Signing and Encryption set of standards in Go,
    including support for JSON Web Encryption (JWE), JSON Web Signature (JWS), and JSON Web Token (JWT)
    standards. Prior to 4.1.4 and 3.0.5, decrypting a JSON Web Encryption (JWE) object will panic if the alg
    field indicates a key wrapping algorithm (one ending in KW, with the exception of A128GCMKW, A192GCMKW,
    and A256GCMKW) and the encrypted_key field is empty. The panic happens when cipher.KeyUnwrap() in
    key_wrap.go attempts to allocate a slice with a zero or negative length based on the length of the
    encrypted_key. This code path is reachable from ParseEncrypted() / ParseEncryptedJSON() /
    ParseEncryptedCompact() followed by Decrypt() on the resulting object. Note that the parse functions take
    a list of accepted key algorithms. If the accepted key algorithms do not include any key wrapping
    algorithms, parsing will fail and the application will be unaffected. This panic is also reachable by
    calling cipher.KeyUnwrap() directly with any ciphertext parameter less than 16 bytes long, but calling
    this function directly is less common. Panics can lead to denial of service. This vulnerability is fixed
    in 4.1.4 and 3.0.5.

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.");
