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

  - hwmon: (pmbus) Fix type confusion in notification logic Sashiko reports: At the start of the loop in     pmbus_notify(), the code unconditionally casts every attribute to a struct sensor_device_attribute:
    drivers/hwmon/pmbus/pmbus_core.c:pmbus_notify() { for (i = 0; i < data->num_attributes; i++) { struct     device_attribute *da = to_dev_attr(data->group.attrs[i]); struct sensor_device_attribute *attr =     to_sensor_dev_attr(da); int index = attr->index; ... } However, data->group.attrs can contain other types     like struct pmbus_samples_reg or struct pmbus_sensor, which only embed a base struct device_attribute. If     da is a struct pmbus_samples_reg, dev_attr is the last member. Casting it to struct     sensor_device_attribute and reading the index field appears to access memory past the end of the     allocation, which might trigger a slab-out-of-bounds read. Additionally, if da is a struct pmbus_sensor,     casting it causes the index field to overlap with the page, phase, and reg fields. Could this produce a     garbage mask on little-endian systems that spuriously matches the target reg, page, and flags during an     alert? Fix the problem by using struct sensor_device_attr in struct pmbus_sensor and struct pmbus_label.
    Since those attributes never trigger a notification, set the value of attr->index to -1 for them. Use this     value to distinguish from boolean attributes which _can_ trigger a notification and use the index field to     encode mask, page, and register values. (CVE-2026-74711)
