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

  - net/mlx5e: Fix AF_XDP TX timestamp teardown NULL dereference During XSK TX queue teardown, outstanding     descriptors are completed without a CQE. If one requested a TX timestamp, the completion path passes that     NULL CQE to mlx5e_xsk_fill_timestamp(), which dereferences it. Return zero when no CQE is available,     indicating that teardown did not produce a TX timestamp. (CVE-2026-98791)

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