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

  - crypto: sun8i-ss - Remove crypto_rng interface Since the crypto_rng interface for hardware PRNGs is unused     and is redundant with hwrng and the actual Linux RNG, it's being phased out. Most drivers for it were     already removed. Go ahead and remove the sun8i-ss support which is one of the only remaining ones. As     usual for crypto_rng, this driver was also buggy: its ->generate() function had a use-after-free     vulnerability due to using wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout() without handling shutting down the     DMA operation if a signal is sent. Also, it had a buffer overread bug in the line 'memcpy(ctx->seed, d +     dlen, ctx->slen);'. There's no point in fixing these bugs separately only to remove the code anyway, so     this commit is marked with Fixes and Cc stable. (CVE-2026-80833)

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