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: Bluetooth: hci_sync: Avoid use-after-     free in dbg for hci_add_adv_monitor() KSAN reports use-after-free in hci_add_adv_monitor(). While adding     an adv monitor, hci_add_adv_monitor() calls -> msft_add_monitor_pattern() calls -> msft_add_monitor_sync()     calls -> msft_le_monitor_advertisement_cb() calls in an error case -> hci_free_adv_monitor() which frees     the *moniter. This is referenced by bt_dev_dbg() in hci_add_adv_monitor(). Fix the bt_dev_dbg() by using     handle instead of monitor->handle. (CVE-2023-53828)

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