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

  - net: fix segmentation of forwarding fraglist GRO This patch enhances GSO segment handling by properly     checking the SKB_GSO_DODGY flag for frag_list GSO packets, addressing low throughput issues observed when     a station accesses IPv4 servers via hotspots with an IPv6-only upstream interface. Specifically, it fixes     a bug in GSO segmentation when forwarding GRO packets containing a frag_list. The function     skb_segment_list cannot correctly process GRO skbs that have been converted by XLAT, since XLAT only     translates the header of the head skb. Consequently, skbs in the frag_list may remain untranslated,     resulting in protocol inconsistencies and reduced throughput. To address this, the patch explicitly sets     the SKB_GSO_DODGY flag for GSO packets in XLAT's IPv4/IPv6 protocol translation helpers     (bpf_skb_proto_4_to_6 and bpf_skb_proto_6_to_4). This marks GSO packets as potentially modified after     protocol translation. As a result, GSO segmentation will avoid using skb_segment_list and instead falls     back to skb_segment for packets with the SKB_GSO_DODGY flag. This ensures that only safe and fully     translated frag_list packets are processed by skb_segment_list, resolving protocol inconsistencies and     improving throughput when forwarding GRO packets converted by XLAT. (CVE-2026-23154)

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