medium Nessus Plugin ID 300457

Synopsis

The Unity Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2026-005514 advisory.

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

icmp: Fix a data-race around sysctl_icmp_errors_use_inbound_ifaddr.

While reading sysctl_icmp_errors_use_inbound_ifaddr, it can be changed concurrently. Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its reader.

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.

Solution

Update the affected kernel package.
