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

  - runc is a CLI tool for spawning and running containers according to the OCI specification. Versions     1.0.0-rc3 through 1.2.7, 1.3.0-rc.1 through 1.3.2, and 1.4.0-rc.1 through 1.4.0-rc.2, due to insufficient     checks when bind-mounting `/dev/pts/$n` to `/dev/console` inside the container, an attacker can trick runc     into bind-mounting paths which would normally be made read-only or be masked onto a path that the attacker     can write to. This attack is very similar in concept and application to CVE-2025-31133, except that it     attacks a similar vulnerability in a different target (namely, the bind-mount of `/dev/pts/$n` to     `/dev/console` as configured for all containers that allocate a console). This happens after     `pivot_root(2)`, so this cannot be used to write to host files directly -- however, as with     CVE-2025-31133, this can load to denial of service of the host or a container breakout by providing the     attacker with a writable copy of `/proc/sysrq-trigger` or `/proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern` (respectively).
    This issue is fixed in versions 1.2.8, 1.3.3 and 1.4.0-rc.3. (CVE-2025-52565)

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