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-2026-107319 advisory.

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

RDMA/hns: Fix UAF for cq async event
