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

  - drm/vmwgfx: Fix a null-ptr access in the cursor snooper Check that the resource which is converted to a     surface exists before trying to use the cursor snooper on it. vmw_cmd_res_check allows explicit invalid     (SVGA3D_INVALID_ID) identifiers because some svga commands accept SVGA3D_INVALID_ID to mean no surface,     unfortunately functions that accept the actual surfaces as objects might (and in case of the cursor     snooper, do not) be able to handle null objects. Make sure that we validate not only the identifier (via     the vmw_cmd_res_check) but also check that the actual resource exists before trying to do something with     it. Fixes unchecked null-ptr reference in the snooping code. (CVE-2025-40110)

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