The updated packages provides a solution for these security issues.

The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2026-002373 advisory.

    The iucv_sock_recvmsg function in net/iucv/af_iucv.c in the Linux kernel before 3.9-rc7 does not     initialize a certain length variable, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel     stack memory via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom 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.

The following security issues have been fixed :

  - Timing side channel on attacks were possible on     /dev/ptmx that could allow local attackers to predict     keypresses like e.g. passwords. This has been fixed     again by updating accessed/modified time on the pty     devices in resolution of 8 seconds, so that idle time     detection can still work. (CVE-2013-0160)
