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

  - Bluetooth Low Energy Pairing in Bluetooth Core Specification v4.0 through v5.3 may permit an     unauthenticated MITM to acquire credentials with two pairing devices via adjacent access when the MITM     negotiates Legacy Passkey Pairing with the pairing Initiator and Secure Connections Passkey Pairing with     the pairing Responder and brute forces the Passkey entered by the user into the Initiator. The MITM     attacker can use the identified Passkey value to complete authentication with the Responder via Bluetooth     pairing method confusion. (CVE-2022-25836)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
