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

  - usb: typec: altmodes/displayport: create sysfs nodes as driver's default device attribute group The     DisplayPort driver's sysfs nodes may be present to the userspace before typec_altmode_set_drvdata()     completes in dp_altmode_probe. This means that a sysfs read can trigger a NULL pointer error by     deferencing dp->hpd in hpd_show or dp->lock in pin_assignment_show, as dev_get_drvdata() returns NULL in     those cases. Remove manual sysfs node creation in favor of adding attribute group as default for devices     bound to the driver. The ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS() macro is not used here otherwise the path to the sysfs nodes     is no longer compliant with the ABI. (CVE-2024-35790)

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