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

  - net/mlx5: Fix deadlock between devlink lock and esw->wq esw->work_queue executes     esw_functions_changed_event_handler -> esw_vfs_changed_event_handler and acquires the devlink lock.
    .eswitch_mode_set (acquires devlink lock in devlink_nl_pre_doit) -> mlx5_devlink_eswitch_mode_set ->     mlx5_eswitch_disable_locked -> mlx5_eswitch_event_handler_unregister -> flush_workqueue deadlocks when     esw_vfs_changed_event_handler executes. Fix that by no longer flushing the work to avoid the deadlock, and     using a generation counter to keep track of work relevance. This avoids an old handler manipulating an esw     that has undergone one or more mode changes: - the counter is incremented in     mlx5_eswitch_event_handler_unregister. - the counter is read and passed to the ephemeral mlx5_host_work     struct. - the work handler takes the devlink lock and bails out if the current generation is different     than the one it was scheduled to operate on. - mlx5_eswitch_cleanup does the final draining before     destroying the wq. No longer flushing the workqueue has the side effect of maybe no longer cancelling     pending vport_change_handler work items, but that's ok since those are disabled elsewhere: -     mlx5_eswitch_disable_locked disables the vport eq notifier. - mlx5_esw_vport_disable disarms the HW EQ     notification and marks vport->enabled under state_lock to false to prevent pending vport handler from     doing anything. - mlx5_eswitch_cleanup destroys the workqueue and makes sure all events are     disabled/finished. (CVE-2026-43468)

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