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

  - Hammer CLI, a CLI utility for Foreman, before version 0.10.0, did not explicitly set the verify_ssl flag     for apipie-bindings that disable it by default. As a result the server certificates are not checked and     connections are prone to man-in-the-middle attacks. (CVE-2017-2667)

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