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

  - bnxt_en: Fix null pointer dereference in bnxt_bs_trace_check_wrap() With older FW, we may get the     ASYNC_EVENT_CMPL_EVENT_ID_DBG_BUF_PRODUCER for FW trace data type that has not been initialized. This will     result in a crash in bnxt_bs_trace_type_wrap(). Add a guard to check for a valid magic_byte pointer before     proceeding. (CVE-2025-68197)

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