"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-106772 advisory.

    FreeRDP before 3.29.0 (affected versions <= 3.28.0) contains a heap out-of-bounds read in
    update_process_glyph_fragments()/glyph_cache_fragment_put() in libfreerdp/cache/glyph.c. When handling a
    GLYPH_FRAGMENT_ADD update, the code reads a one-byte server-controlled declared fragment size but does not
    verify it fits within the remaining received buffer before allocating and copying that many bytes. A
    malicious RDP server can send a short fragment with an oversized declared size, causing the client to read
    beyond the allocated buffer, resulting in an out-of-bounds read and client crash.

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.");
