"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-146869 advisory.

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

    xfrm: state: fix out-of-bounds read during lookup

    lookup and resize can run in parallel.

    The xfrm_state_hash_generation seqlock ensures a retry, but the hash
    functions can observe a hmask value that is too large for the new hlist
    array.

    rehash does:
      rcu_assign_pointer(net->xfrm.state_bydst, ndst) [..]
      net->xfrm.state_hmask = nhashmask;

    While state lookup does:
      h = xfrm_dst_hash(net, daddr, saddr, tmpl->reqid, encap_family);
      hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(x, net->xfrm.state_bydst + h, bydst) {

    This is only safe in case the update to state_bydst is larger than
    net->xfrm.xfrm_state_hmask (or if the lookup function gets
    serialized via state spinlock again).

    Fix this by prefetching state_hmask and the associated pointers.
    The xfrm_state_hash_generation seqlock retry will ensure that the pointer
    and the hmask will be consistent.

    The existing helpers, like xfrm_dst_hash(), are now unsafe for RCU side,
    add lockdep assertions to document that they are only safe for insert
    side.

    xfrm_state_lookup_byaddr() uses the spinlock rather than RCU.
    AFAICS this is an oversight from back when state lookup was converted to
    RCU, this lock should be replaced with RCU in a future patch.

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.");
