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-2026-007208 advisory.

FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.22.0, audin_server_recv_formats frees an incorrect number of audio formats on parse failure (i + i), leading to out-of-bounds access in audio_formats_free. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.22.0.
