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

  - perf/core: Exit early on perf_mmap() fail When perf_mmap() fails to allocate a buffer, it still invokes     the event_mapped() callback of the related event. On X86 this might increase the perf_rdpmc_allowed     reference counter. But nothing undoes this as perf_mmap_close() is never called in this case, which causes     another reference count leak. Return early on failure to prevent that. (CVE-2025-38565)

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