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

  - net: atlantic: fix fragment overflow handling in RX path The atlantic driver can receive packets with more     than MAX_SKB_FRAGS (17) fragments when handling large multi-descriptor packets. This causes an out-of-     bounds write in skb_add_rx_frag_netmem() leading to kernel panic. The issue occurs because the driver     doesn't check the total number of fragments before calling skb_add_rx_frag(). When a packet requires more     than MAX_SKB_FRAGS fragments, the fragment index exceeds the array bounds. Fix by assuming there will be     an extra frag if buff->len > AQ_CFG_RX_HDR_SIZE, then all fragments are accounted for. And reusing the     existing check to prevent the overflow earlier in the code path. This crash occurred in production with an     Aquantia AQC113 10G NIC.
