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

  - nfsd: don't ignore the return code of svc_proc_register() Currently, nfsd_proc_stat_init() ignores the     return value of svc_proc_register(). If the procfile creation fails, then the kernel will WARN when it     tries to remove the entry later. Fix nfsd_proc_stat_init() to return the same type of pointer as     svc_proc_register(), and fix up nfsd_net_init() to check that and fail the nfsd_net construction if it     occurs. svc_proc_register() can fail if the dentry can't be allocated, or if an identical dentry already     exists. The second case is pretty unlikely in the nfsd_net construction codepath, so if this happens,     return -ENOMEM. (CVE-2025-22026)

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