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

  - rxrpc: Fix re-decryption of RESPONSE packets If a RESPONSE packet gets a temporary failure during     processing, it may end up in a partially decrypted state - and then get requeued for a retry. Fix this by     just discarding the packet; we will send another CHALLENGE packet and thereby elicit a further response.
    Similarly, discard an incoming CHALLENGE packet if we get an error whilst generating a RESPONSE; the     server will send another CHALLENGE. (CVE-2026-45988)

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