Description

The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2025-987250 advisory.

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

tcp: Fix a data-race around sysctl_tcp_mtu_probe_floor.

While reading sysctl_tcp_mtu_probe_floor, it can be changed concurrently.
