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: serial: qcom-geni: Fix blocked task     Revert commit 1afa70632c39 (serial: qcom-geni: Enable PM runtime for serial driver) and its dependent     commit 86fa39dd6fb7 (serial: qcom-geni: Enable Serial on SA8255p Qualcomm platforms) because the first     one causes regression - hang task on Qualcomm RB1 board (QRB2210) and unable to use serial at all during     normal boot: INFO: task kworker/u16:0:12 blocked for more than 42 seconds.

    Only after complaining author produced a fix which did not work, so if original commits cannot be reliably     fixed for 5 weeks, they obviously are buggy and need to be dropped. (CVE-2025-40108)

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