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

  - ice: add NULL check in eswitch lag check The function ice_lag_is_switchdev_running() is being called from     outside of the LAG event handler code. This results in the lag->upper_netdev being NULL sometimes. To     avoid a NULL-pointer dereference, there needs to be a check before it is dereferenced. (CVE-2025-38526)

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