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: crypto: ccp - Always pass in an error     pointer to __sev_platform_shutdown_locked() When 9770b428b1a2 (crypto: ccp - Move dev_info/err messages     for SEV/SNP init and shutdown) moved the error messages dumping so that they don't need to be issued by     the callers, it missed the case where __sev_firmware_shutdown() calls __sev_platform_shutdown_locked()     with a NULL argument which leads to a NULL ptr deref on the shutdown path, during suspend to disk: #PF:

With that addressed, suspending the ccp shows the error properly at least: ccp 0000:47:00.1: sev     command 0x2 timed out, disabling PSP ccp 0000:47:00.1: SEV: failed to SHUTDOWN error 0x0, rc -110 SEV-SNP:
