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: fbdev: Fix unregistering of     framebuffers without device OF framebuffers do not have an underlying device in the Linux device     hierarchy. Do a regular unregister call instead of hot unplugging such a non-existing device. Fixes a NULL     dereference. An example error message on ppc64le is shown below. BUG: Kernel NULL pointer dereference on     read at 0x00000060 Faulting instruction address: 0xc00000000080dfa4 Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig:

    Most firmware framebuffers have an underlying platform device, which can be hot-unplugged before loading     the native graphics driver. OF framebuffers do not (yet) have that device. Fix the code by unregistering     the framebuffer as before without a hot unplug. Tested with 5.17 on qemu ppc64le emulation.
