The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the fee67ad5-a05e-11f1-ad2b-40b034429ecf advisory.

    rsync project reports:
    This release fixes 33 security issues found during a focused audit of rsync's path           handling and daemon protocol, a companion daemon-protocol fuzzing pass, and reports               from external researchers -- plus several robustness hardenings. CVE IDs were assigned               by VulnCheck (CNA); the precise introduced in version ranges accompany each advisory,               and many are much narrower than everything before 3.5.0. Every fix ships with a               regression test in the test suite that fails on the unfixed tree.

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

  - rsync before 3.5.0 contains a symlink race condition vulnerability in the sender's source tree traversal     that allows an attacker who can manipulate a parent directory of the source tree to redirect file reads to     unintended paths. Attackers can atomically replace a parent directory component with a symlink pointing     outside the source root between path resolution and file open operations to disclose file contents outside     the intended transfer root. (CVE-2026-53797)

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