high Nessus Plugin ID 370011

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-2026-142359 advisory.

PCRE2 before 10.49, when there is an attacker-controlled regular expression and certain JIT API usage, allows an out-of-bounds write with arbitrary data.

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 pcre2 package.
