"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-104953 advisory.

    websocket-driver is a WebSocket protocol handler with pluggable I/O. Prior to 0.8.2,
    WebSocket::Driver.server() passes a malformed Host header to URI.parse in lib/websocket/http/request.rb
    without catching URI::InvalidURIError, allowing a remote client to crash a TCP-backed WebSocket server
    when the application does not catch the error from parse(). This issue is fixed in version 0.8.2.

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.");
