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

  - caif: fix integer underflow in cffrml_receive() The cffrml_receive() function extracts a length field from     the packet header and, when FCS is disabled, subtracts 2 from this length without validating that len >=     2. If an attacker sends a malicious packet with a length field of 0 or 1 to an interface with FCS     disabled, the subtraction causes an integer underflow. This can lead to memory exhaustion and kernel     instability, potential information disclosure if padding contains uninitialized kernel memory. Fix this by     validating that len >= 2 before performing the subtraction. (CVE-2025-68799)

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