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

  - xfs: validate attr entry pointer before field access xfs_attr3_leaf_verify_entry() accesses lentry/rentry     fields (namelen, valuelen) before checking if the entry pointer itself is within bounds. If nameidx is     crafted to point near the end of the buffer, these field accesses can read out-of-bounds before the bounds     check at name_end > buf_end is performed. Add explicit bounds checks for entry pointers before accessing     their fields. Use offsetof() to check that the start of the flexible array member (nameval/name) is within     bounds, which ensures all preceding fields are safe to access. (CVE-2026-80805)

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