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

  - regmap: Fix race condition in hwspinlock irqsave routine Previously, the address of the shared member     '&map->spinlock_flags' was passed directly to 'hwspin_lock_timeout_irqsave'. This creates a race condition     where multiple contexts contending for the lock could overwrite the shared flags variable, potentially     corrupting the state for the current lock owner. Fix this by using a local stack variable 'flags' to store     the IRQ state temporarily. (CVE-2026-23071)

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