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

  - dlm: prevent NPD when writing a positive value to event_done do_uevent returns the value written to     event_done. In case it is a positive value, new_lockspace would undo all the work, and lockspace would not     be set. __dlm_new_lockspace, however, would treat that positive value as a success due to commit     8511a2728ab8 (dlm: fix use count with multiple joins). Down the line, device_create_lockspace would pass     that NULL lockspace to dlm_find_lockspace_local, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. Treating such     positive values as successes prevents the problem. Given this has been broken for so long, this is     unlikely to break userspace expectations. (CVE-2025-23131)

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