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

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm, slab: clean up slab->obj_exts     always When memory allocation profiling is disabled at runtime or due to an error,     shutdown_mem_profiling() is called: slab->obj_exts which previously allocated remains. It won't be cleared     by unaccount_slab() because of mem_alloc_profiling_enabled() not true. It's incorrect, slab->obj_exts     should always be cleaned up in unaccount_slab() to avoid following error: [...]BUG: Bad page state in     process... .. [...]page dumped because: page still charged to cgroup [andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com:
    fold need_slab_obj_ext() into its only user] (CVE-2025-37908)

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