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

  - When reading an HTTP response from a server, if no read amount is specified, the default behavior will be     to use Content-Length. This allows a malicious server to cause the client to read large amounts of data     into memory, potentially causing OOM or other DoS. (CVE-2025-13836)

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