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: KVM: x86: smm: number of GPRs in the     SMRAM image depends on the image format On 64 bit host, if the guest doesn't have X86_FEATURE_LM, KVM will     access 16 gprs to 32-bit smram image, causing out-ouf-bound ram access. On 32 bit host, the     rsm_load_state_64/enter_smm_save_state_64 is compiled out, thus access overflow can't happen.
    (CVE-2022-49883)

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

The remote Oracle Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2025-6966 advisory.

    - net: stmmac: dwmac-tegra: Read iommu stream id from device tree (Izabela Bakollari) [RHEL-75649]     {CVE-2025-21663}
    - net: stmmac: Fix zero-division error when disabling tc cbs (Izabela Bakollari) [RHEL-63931]     {CVE-2024-49977}
    - scsi: qla2xxx: Fix use after free on unload (Ewan D. Milne) [RHEL-75828] {CVE-2024-56623}

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Oracle Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
