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: bpf: Fix unsound scalar forking in     maybe_fork_scalars() for BPF_OR maybe_fork_scalars() is called for both BPF_AND and BPF_OR when the source     operand is a constant. When dst has signed range [-1, 0], it forks the verifier state: the pushed path     gets dst = 0, the current path gets dst = -1. For BPF_AND this is correct: 0 & K == 0. For BPF_OR this is     wrong: 0 | K == K, not 0. The pushed path therefore tracks dst as 0 when the runtime value is K, producing     an exploitable verifier/runtime divergence that allows out-of-bounds map access. Fix this by passing     env->insn_idx (instead of env->insn_idx + 1) to push_stack(), so the pushed path re-executes the ALU     instruction with dst = 0 and naturally computes the correct result for any opcode. (CVE-2026-31413)

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