"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-146653 advisory.

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

    lockd: pin next file across nlm_inspect_file lock-drop

    nlm_traverse_files() pins the current file with f_count++ across
    a mutex_unlock for nlm_inspect_file(), but nothing pins the saved
    next pointer.  A concurrent nlm_release_file() can kfree the next
    file during the unlock window, and the iterator dereferences freed
    memory on the next loop step.

    Pin both current and next before the lock-drop.  Advance by
    swapping the pinned cursors at the end of each iteration so next
    is always held alive across the unlock.

    Always call nlm_file_release() after dropping the iteration pin,
    regardless of whether the file matched the predicate.  Use
    nlm_file_inuse(), which does a live walk of the inode lock list,
    rather than the cached f_locks field, so skipped files that never
    ran nlm_inspect_file() are evaluated correctly.

    Because every file in a hash bucket is now pinned and released,
    files skipped by the is_failover_file predicate that have no
    locks, blocks, shares, or external references are deleted during
    traversal.  The old code never evaluated skipped files for
    cleanup.  The new behavior is intentional: such files are stale
    and should not persist in the table.

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.");
