Description

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

 - dm: verity-loadpin: Only trust verity targets with enforcement Verity targets can be configured to ignore corrupted data blocks. LoadPin must only trust verity targets that are configured to perform some kind of enforcement when data corruption is detected, like returning an error, restarting the system or triggering a panic. (CVE-2022-50621)

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