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

  - astral-tokio-tar is a tar archive reading/writing library for async Rust. In versions 0.5.6 and earlier,     malformed PAX extensions were silently skipped when parsing tar archives. This silent skipping (rather     than rejection) of invalid PAX extensions could be used as a building block for a parser differential, for     example by silently skipping a malformed GNU long link extension so that a subsequent parser would     misinterpret the extension. In practice, exploiting this behavior in astral-tokio-tar requires a secondary     misbehaving tar parser, i.e. one that insufficiently validates malformed PAX extensions and interprets     them rather than skipping or erroring on them. This vulnerability is considered low-severity as it     requires a separate vulnerability against any unrelated tar parser. This issue has been fixed in version     0.6.0. (CVE-2026-32766)

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