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

  - ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to     versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40, ImageMagick's path security policy is enforced on the raw filename string     before the filesystem resolves it. As a result, a policy rule such as /etc/* can be bypassed by a path     traversal. The OS resolves the traversal and opens the sensitive file, but the policy matcher only sees     the unnormalized path and therefore allows the read. This enables local file disclosure (LFI) even when     policy-secure.xml is applied. Actions to prevent reading from files have been taken in versions .7.1.2-15     and 6.9.13-40 But it make sure writing is also not possible the following should be added to one's policy.
    This will also be included in ImageMagick's more secure policies by default. (CVE-2026-25965)

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