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

  - wifi: mt76: mt7921: validate CLC firmware records The CLC region is supplied by firmware, but the loader     trusts the region count and each record length. A malformed image can make the region table pointer     precede the firmware buffer, make the record loop fail to advance, or index phy->clc past its end.
    Validate the table and record bounds before dereferencing or copying. (CVE-2026-98159)

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