"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-142761 advisory.

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

    RDMA/bnxt_re: zero shared page before exposing to userspace

    bnxt_re_alloc_ucontext() allocates uctx->shpg via
    __get_free_page(GFP_KERNEL). The buddy allocator does not zero pages
    without __GFP_ZERO, so the page contains stale kernel data from
    whatever object most recently freed it.

    The page is then mapped into userspace via vm_insert_page() under
    BNXT_RE_MMAP_SH_PAGE in bnxt_re_mmap(). The driver only ever writes
    4 bytes (a u32 AVID) at offset BNXT_RE_AVID_OFFT (0x10) inside
    bnxt_re_create_ah(); the remaining 4092 bytes of the page are exposed
    to userspace unsanitised, leaking kernel memory contents.

    Any user with access to /dev/infiniband/uverbsX on a host with a
    bnxt_re device (typically rdma group membership) can read this data
    via a single mmap() at pgoff 0 after IB_USER_VERBS_CMD_GET_CONTEXT.

    Other shared pages in the same file already use get_zeroed_page()
    correctly:

      drivers/infiniband/hw/bnxt_re/ib_verbs.c
          srq->uctx_srq_page = (void *)get_zeroed_page(GFP_KERNEL);
          cq->uctx_cq_page  = (void *)get_zeroed_page(GFP_KERNEL);

    uctx->shpg is the only outlier. Bring it in line with the existing
    convention by switching to get_zeroed_page().

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.");
