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

  - ALSA: firewire-motu: add bounds check in put_user loop for DSP events In the DSP event handling code, a     put_user() loop copies event data. When the user buffer size is not aligned to 4 bytes, it could overwrite     beyond the buffer boundary. Fix by adding a bounds check before put_user(). (CVE-2025-68753)

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