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: crypto: algif_aead - snapshot IV for     async AEAD requests AF_ALG AEAD AIO requests currently use the socket-wide IV buffer during request     processing. For async requests, later socket activity can update that shared state before the original     request has fully completed, which can lead to inconsistent IV handling. Snapshot the IV into per-request     storage when preparing the AEAD request, so in-flight operations no longer depend on mutable socket state.
    (CVE-2026-46028)

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