The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2026-002695 advisory.

    The walk_hugetlb_range function in mm/pagewalk.c in the Linux kernel before 4.14.2 mishandles holes in     hugetlb ranges, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from uninitialized kernel memory     via crafted use of the mincore() system call.

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.
