"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-130378 advisory.
GNU cpio is vulnerable to improper encoding or escaping of output in its archive member listing
functionality. When listing archive members via cpio -it, member names are printed directly to output
without quoting or escaping. An attacker can craft a cpio archive containing member names with embedded
newline characters or ANSI escape sequences, causing forged listing entries or terminal control sequence
injection when the listing is displayed.
This issue has been fixed in commit 2ff9600c9ef32e88759843cdbde74c8db5ae9b30
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.");
