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

  - Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that     provides both high-level operations and full access to internals. Git defines a line-based protocol that     is used to exchange information between Git and Git credential helpers. Some ecosystems (most notably,     .NET and node.js) interpret single Carriage Return characters as newlines, which renders the protections     against CVE-2020-5260 incomplete for credential helpers that treat Carriage Returns in this way. This     issue has been addressed in commit `b01b9b8` which is included in release versions v2.48.1, v2.47.2,     v2.46.3, v2.45.3, v2.44.3, v2.43.6, v2.42.4, v2.41.3, and v2.40.4. Users are advised to upgrade. Users     unable to upgrade should avoid cloning from untrusted URLs, especially recursive clones. (CVE-2024-52006)

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