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

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm: Do not allow userspace to trigger     kernel warnings in drm_gem_change_handle_ioctl() Since GEM bo handles are u32 in the uapi and the internal     implementation uses idr_alloc() which uses int ranges, passing a new handle larger than INT_MAX trivially     triggers a kernel warning: idr_alloc(): ... if (WARN_ON_ONCE(start < 0)) return -EINVAL; ... Fix it by     rejecting new handles above INT_MAX and at the same time make the end limit calculation more obvious by     moving into int domain. (CVE-2026-23149)

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