The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2025-987002 advisory.

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

    perf bpf: Avoid memory leak from perf_env__insert_btf()

    perf_env__insert_btf() doesn't insert if a duplicate BTF id is     encountered and this causes a memory leak. Modify the function to return     a success/error value and then free the memory if insertion didn't     happen.

    v2. Adds a return -1 when the insertion error occurs in         perf_env__fetch_btf. This doesn't affect anything as the result is         never checked.

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.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.10.82-83.359. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.10-2024-049 advisory.

    A vulnerability was found in Linux kernel, where a use-after-frees in nouveau's postclose() handler could     happen if removing device (that is not common to remove video card physically without power-off, but same     happens if unbind the driver). (CVE-2020-27820)

    A flaw use-after-free in function sco_sock_sendmsg() of the Linux kernel HCI subsystem was found in the     way user calls ioct UFFDIO_REGISTER or other way triggers race condition of the call sco_conn_del()     together with the call sco_sock_sendmsg() with the expected controllable faulting memory page. A     privileged local user could use this flaw to crash the system or escalate their privileges on the system.
    (CVE-2021-3640)

    A flaw was found in the Linux SCTP stack. A blind attacker may be able to kill an existing SCTP     association through invalid chunks if the attacker knows the IP-addresses and port numbers being used and     the attacker can send packets with spoofed IP addresses. (CVE-2021-3772)

    A race condition was found in the Linux kernel's ebpf verifier between bpf_map_update_elem and     bpf_map_freeze due to a missing lock in kernel/bpf/syscall.c. In this flaw, a local user with a special     privilege (cap_sys_admin or cap_bpf) can modify the frozen mapped address space. (CVE-2021-4001)

    A memory leak flaw in the Linux kernel's hugetlbfs memory usage was found in the way the user maps some     regions of memory twice using shmget() which are aligned to PUD alignment with the fault of some of the     memory pages.

    A flaw heap buffer overflow in the Linux kernel's AMD Radeon graphics card driver was found in the way     user writes some malicious data to the AMD GPU Display Driver Debug Filesystem (to the VGA sub-directory     of the /sys/kernel/debug/ directory).
