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

  - cxl/region: Validate partition index before array access construct_region() reads cxled->part and uses it     to index cxlds->part[] without checking for a negative value. If the partition was never resolved, part     remains at its initial value of -1, causing an out-of-bounds array access. Add a guard to return -EBUSY     when part is negative. The check was dropped during a merge. (CVE-2026-97423)

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