The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2026-003794 advisory.

    A memory leak in the crypto_reportstat() function in crypto/crypto_user_stat.c in the Linux kernel through     5.3.11 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering     crypto_reportstat_alg() failures, aka CID-c03b04dcdba1.
