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

  - ACPI: pfr_update: Fix the driver update version check The security-version-number check should be used     rather than the runtime version check for driver updates. Otherwise, the firmware update would fail when     the update binary had a lower runtime version number than the current one. [ rjw: Changelog edits ]     (CVE-2025-39701)

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