"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-142749 advisory.

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

    tcp: clear sock_ops cb flags before force-closing a child socket

    A child socket inherits the listener's bpf_sock_ops_cb_flags via
    sk_clone_lock(). If its setup fails in tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock() /
    tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock(), the child is freed through put_and_exit, where
    inet_csk_prepare_forced_close() drops the socket lock and tcp_done() runs
    without it.

    If BPF_SOCK_OPS_STATE_CB_FLAG was inherited, tcp_done() -> tcp_set_state()
    calls tcp_call_bpf(), which expects the lock and trips sock_owned_by_me():

      WARNING: include/net/sock.h:1799 at tcp_set_state+0x433/0x550
      RIP: 0010:tcp_set_state+0x433/0x550 include/net/sock.h:1799
      Call Trace:
       <IRQ>
       tcp_done+0xba/0x250 net/ipv4/tcp.c:5095
       tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock+0x850/0xa50 net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c:1787
       tcp_check_req+0xf30/0x1360 net/ipv4/tcp_minisocks.c:926
       tcp_v4_rcv+0x1047/0x1b50 net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c:2164
       </IRQ>

    The child is freed before it is ever established, so it should run no
    sock_ops callback. Clear its cb flags in inet_csk_prepare_for_destroy_sock(),
    the common point for the IPv4, IPv6 and chtls forced-close paths and for the
    MPTCP ->syn_recv_sock() failure path (dispose_child), which reaches tcp_done()
    on a child that was never established too.

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.");
