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

  - The net/url package does not set a limit on the number of query parameters in a query. While the maximum     size of query parameters in URLs is generally limited by the maximum request header size, the     net/http.Request.ParseForm method can parse large URL-encoded forms. Parsing a large form containing many     unique query parameters can cause excessive memory consumption. (CVE-2025-61726)

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