The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2026-101961 advisory.

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

    btrfs: only release the dirty pages io tree after successful writes

    [WARNING]     With extra warning on dirty extent buffers at umount (aka, the next     patch in the series), test case generic/388 can trigger the following     warning about dirty extent buffers at unmount time:

    [CAUSE]     Inside btrfs_write_and_wait_transaction(), we first try to write all     dirty ebs, then wait for them to finish.

    After that we call btrfs_extent_io_tree_release() to free all     extent states from dirty_pages io tree.

    However if we hit an error from btrfs_write_marked_extent(), then we     still call btrfs_extent_io_tree_release() to clear that dirty_pages io     tree, which may contain dirty records that we haven't yet submitted.

    Furthermore, the later transaction cleanup path will utilize that     dirty_pages io tree to properly cleanup those dirty ebs, but since it's     already empty, no dirty ebs are properly cleaned up, thus will later     trigger the warnings inside invalidate_btree_folios().
