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

  - octeontx2-af: Fix PF driver crash with kexec kernel booting During a kexec reboot the hardware is not     power-cycled, so AF state from the old kernel can persist into the new kernel. When AF and PF drivers are     built as modules, the PF driver may probe before AF reinitializes the hardware. The PF driver treats the     RVUM block revision as an indication that AF initialization is complete. If this value is left uncleared     at shutdown, PF may incorrectly assume AF is ready and access stale hardware state, leading to a crash.
    Clear the RVUM block revision during AF shutdown to avoid PF mis-detecting AF readiness after kexec.
    (CVE-2026-46249)

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