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

  - Relative Path Traversal vulnerability in Apache Tomcat. The fix for bug 60013 introduced a regression     where the rewritten URL was normalized before it was decoded. This introduced the possibility that, for     rewrite rules that rewrite query parameters to the URL, an attacker could manipulate the request URI to     bypass security constraints including the protection for /WEB-INF/ and /META-INF/. If PUT requests were     also enabled then malicious files could be uploaded leading to remote code execution. PUT requests are     normally limited to trusted users and it is considered unlikely that PUT requests would be enabled in     conjunction with a rewrite that manipulated the URI. This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1     through 11.0.10, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.44, from 9.0.0.M11 through 9.0.108. The following versions     were EOL at the time the CVE was created but are known to be affected: 8.5.6 though 8.5.100. Other, older,     EOL versions may also be affected. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.11 or later, 10.1.45     or later or 9.0.109 or later, which fix the issue. (CVE-2025-55752)

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