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

  - net: phy: leds: fix memory leak A network restart test on a router led to an out-of-memory condition,     which was traced to a memory leak in the PHY LED trigger code. The root cause is misuse of the devm API.
    The registration function (phy_led_triggers_register) is called from phy_attach_direct, not phy_probe, and     the unregister function (phy_led_triggers_unregister) is called from phy_detach, not phy_remove. This     means the register and unregister functions can be called multiple times for the same PHY device, but     devm-allocated memory is not freed until the driver is unbound. This also prevents kmemleak from detecting     the leak, as the devm API internally stores the allocated pointer. Fix this by replacing     devm_kzalloc/devm_kcalloc with standard kzalloc/kcalloc, and add the corresponding kfree calls in the     unregister path. (CVE-2025-37989)

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