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

  - misc: ocxl: fix possible name leak in ocxl_file_register_afu() If device_register() returns error in     ocxl_file_register_afu(), the name allocated by dev_set_name() need be freed. As comment of     device_register() says, it should use put_device() to give up the reference in the error path. So fix this     by calling put_device(), then the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup(), and info is freed in     info_release(). (CVE-2022-50669)

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