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

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: kernel/kexec: fix IMA when allocation     happens in CMA area *** Bug description *** When I tested kexec with the latest kernel, I ran into the     following warning: [ 40.712410] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 40.712576] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID:
    1562 at kernel/kexec_core.c:1001 kimage_map_segment+0x144/0x198 [...] [ 40.816047] Call trace: [     40.818498] kimage_map_segment+0x144/0x198 (P) [ 40.823221] ima_kexec_post_load+0x58/0xc0 [ 40.827246]
    __do_sys_kexec_file_load+0x29c/0x368 [...] [ 40.855423] ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]--- *** How to     reproduce *** This bug is only triggered when the kexec target address is allocated in the CMA area. If no     CMA area is reserved in the kernel, use the cma= option in the kernel command line to reserve one. ***     Root cause *** The commit 07d24902977e (kexec: enable CMA based contiguous allocation) allocates the     kexec target address directly on the CMA area to avoid copying during the jump. In this case, there is no     IND_SOURCE for the kexec segment. But the current implementation of kimage_map_segment() assumes that     IND_SOURCE pages exist and map them into a contiguous virtual address by vmap(). *** Solution *** If IMA     segment is allocated in the CMA area, use its page_address() directly. (CVE-2025-71139)

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

The remote Ubuntu 24.04 LTS / 25.10 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-8374-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that the Linux kernel algif_aead module did not properly handle in-place cryptographic     operations. This flaw is known as Copy Fail. A local attacker could use this to escalate privileges, or     possibly escape a container. (CVE-2026-31431)

    It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly handle shared page fragments during socket buffer     operations, collectively known as Dirty Frag. A logic flaw existed in the XFRM ESP-in-TCP subsystem and in     the RxRPC networking subsystem when processing paged fragments. A local attacker could use this to     escalate privileges, or possibly escape a container. (CVE-2026-43284, CVE-2026-43500, CVE-2026-45998,     CVE-2026-46000)

    It was discovered that a logic flaw existed in the XFRM ESP-in-TCP subsystem in the Linux kernel when     handling socket buffer fragments. This flaw is known as Fragnesia. A local attacker could use this to     escalate privileges, or possibly escape a container. (CVE-2026-43503, CVE-2026-46300)

    Qualys discovered that a race condition existed in the ptrace subsystem of the Linux kernel when     privileged processes are exiting. An unprivileged local attacker could use this issue to expose sensitive     information. (CVE-2026-46333)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contain a memory leak when handling     AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause resource exhaustion. (CVE-2026-47326)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contain a NULL pointer dereference     when handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause a kernel oops.
    (CVE-2026-47327)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained an invalid free when     handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to corrupt kernel memory.
    (CVE-2026-47328)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained insufficient validation of     AppArmor notification responses. A local attacker could use this to allow crafted responses to be     processed. (CVE-2026-47329)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 used an uninitialized variable when     handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause incorrect caching of data.
    (CVE-2026-47330)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained an out-of-bounds (OOB) read     when handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause information disclosure of     kernel memory. (CVE-2026-47332)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained a out-of-bounds (OOB) read     when handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause kernel memory corruption     and, theoretically, influence processing of AppArmor policies. (CVE-2026-47333)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained incorrect holding of locks     when handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause a kernel panic or deadlock.
    (CVE-2026-47334)

    Tristan Madani and Trevor Lawrence have each independently discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17     and 7.0 contained a NULL pointer dereference when handling AppArmor network socket mediation. A local     attacker could use this to cause a kernel oops. (CVE-2026-47337)
