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

  - A flaw was identified in libsoup, a widely used HTTP library in GNOME-based systems. When processing     specially crafted HTTP Range headers, the library may improperly validate requested byte ranges. In     certain build configurations, this could allow a remote attacker to access portions of server memory     beyond the intended response. Exploitation requires a vulnerable configuration and access to a server     using the embedded SoupServer component. (CVE-2026-2443)

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