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: mm: huge_memory: use !CONFIG_64BIT to     relax huge page alignment on 32 bit machines Yves-Alexis Perez reported commit 4ef9ad19e176 (mm:
    huge_memory: don't force huge page alignment on 32 bit) didn't work for x86_32 [1]. It is because x86_32     uses CONFIG_X86_32 instead of CONFIG_32BIT. !CONFIG_64BIT should cover all 32 bit machines.

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