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: rxrpc: Fix potential UAF after     skb_unshare() failure If skb_unshare() fails to unshare a packet due to allocation failure in     rxrpc_input_packet(), the skb pointer in the parent (rxrpc_io_thread()) will be NULL'd out. This will     likely cause the call to trace_rxrpc_rx_done() to oops. Fix this by moving the unsharing down to where     rxrpc_input_call_event() calls rxrpc_input_call_packet(). There are a number of places prior to that where     we ignore DATA packets for a variety of reasons (such as the call already being complete) for which an     unshare is then avoided. And with that, rxrpc_input_packet() doesn't need to take a pointer to the pointer     to the packet, so change that to just a pointer. (CVE-2026-45998)

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