"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-142759 advisory.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme-tcp: do not accept C2HData based on blk_rq_payload_bytes() alone
Commit 25e5cb780e62 (nvme-tcp: fix possible crash in write_zeroes
processing) established that blk_rq_payload_bytes() must not be read
without first checking blk_rq_nr_phys_segments(), and recorded the
result in nvme_tcp_setup_cmd_pdu() as req->data_len. The receive side
was left as it was.
The two differ for REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES, which has no physical segments
but a non-zero blk_rq_bytes(), so setup leaves req->iter untouched
while the receive gate lets a C2HData through and nvme_tcp_recv_data()
copies into whatever the previous command on that tag left there. The
driver-private area is zeroed only when the tag set is allocated.
Reproduced with a test target that leaves a residual iterator on a tag
and then sends a C2HData for a WRITE_ZEROES command on the same tag:

Keep the blk_rq_payload_bytes() test and add req->data_len to it. The
old test is what rejects a C2HData naming a tag that is no longer in
flight, because blk_update_request() zeroes rq->__data_len on
completion; req->data_len and req->curr_bio are driver-private and
survive completion, so they cannot stand in for it. Setup initialises
the iterator only when both req->curr_bio and req->data_len are set, so
the gate now tests the same two.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
