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: tracing: kprobe: Fix potential null-     ptr-deref on trace_array in kprobe_event_gen_test_exit() When test_gen_kprobe_cmd() failed after     kprobe_event_gen_cmd_end(), it will goto delete, which will call kprobe_event_delete() and release the     corresponding resource. However, the trace_array in gen_kretprobe_test will point to the invalid resource.
