"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-146280 advisory.

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

    RDMA/rxe: Fix a use-after-free problem in rxe_mmap

    rxe_mmap() removes a rxe_mmap_info struct from the pending_mmaps list
    and releases pending_lock while the struct's kref is still at 1:

       list_del_init(&ip->pending_mmaps);
       spin_unlock_bh(&rxe->pending_lock);   /* ref == 1, no lock held */
       ret = remap_vmalloc_range(vma, ip->obj, 0);  /* walks PTEs */
       [...]
       rxe_vma_open(vma);                    /* kref_get, ref  2 */
       remap_vmalloc_range_partial() walks PTEs without any lock.

    A concurrent DESTROY_CQ ioctl on another CPU calls:

        kref_put(&q->ip->ref, rxe_mmap_release)   /* ref 10 */
        vfree(ip->obj)   /* clears vmalloc PTEs mid-walk */
        kfree(ip)        /* frees rxe_mmap_info */

    This yields:

       1. Kernel crash, vmalloc_to_page() returns NULL when vfree wins the
       per-PTE race -> vm_insert_page(NULL)  GPF in validate_page_before_insert

       2. Page UAF, vmalloc_to_page() reads a stale PTE before vfree clears
       it. User VMA holds a PTE to a free'd page which might eventually get
       reallocated later by vmalloc which allows the attacker to get a clean
       page-level UAF.

       It is worth noting that even though a page-level UAF is possible given
       the strong primitive, it is statistically very difficult to achieve
       given the very short time window (after the last insert_page and before
       the kref_get).
