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

  - rcu/nocb: Fix possible invalid rdp's->nocb_cb_kthread pointer access In the preparation stage of CPU     online, if the corresponding the rdp's->nocb_cb_kthread does not exist, will be created, there is a     situation where the rdp's rcuop kthreads creation fails, and then de-offload this CPU's rdp, does not     assign this CPU's rdp->nocb_cb_kthread pointer, but this rdp's->nocb_gp_rdp and     rdp's->rdp_gp->nocb_gp_kthread is still valid. This will cause the subsequent re-offload operation of this     offline CPU, which will pass the conditional check and the kthread_unpark() will access invalid     rdp's->nocb_cb_kthread pointer. This commit therefore use rdp's->nocb_gp_kthread instead of     rdp_gp's->nocb_gp_kthread for safety check. (CVE-2025-38704)

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

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2025-1208 advisory.
