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: btrfs: fix space cache corruption and     potential double allocations When testing space_cache v2 on a large set of machines, we encountered a few     symptoms: 1. unable to add free space :-17 (EEXIST) errors. 2. Missing free space info items, sometimes     caught with a missing free space info for X error. 3. Double-accounted space: ranges that were allocated     in the extent tree and also marked as free in the free space tree, ranges that were marked as allocated     twice in the extent tree, or ranges that were marked as free twice in the free space tree. If the latter     made it onto disk, the next reboot would hit the BUG_ON() in add_new_free_space(). 4. On some hosts with     no on-disk corruption or error messages, the in-memory space cache (dumped with drgn) disagreed with the     free space tree. All of these symptoms have the same underlying cause: a race between caching the free     space for a block group and returning free space to the in-memory space cache for pinned extents causes us     to double-add a free range to the space cache. This race exists when free space is cached from the free     space tree (space_cache=v2) or the extent tree (nospace_cache, or space_cache=v1 if the cache needs to be     regenerated). struct btrfs_block_group::last_byte_to_unpin and struct btrfs_block_group::progress are     supposed to protect against this race, but commit d0c2f4fa555e (btrfs: make concurrent fsyncs wait less     when waiting for a transaction commit) subtly broke this by allowing multiple transactions to be     unpinning extents at the same time. Specifically, the race is as follows: 1. An extent is deleted from an     uncached block group in transaction A. 2. btrfs_commit_transaction() is called for transaction A. 3.
    btrfs_run_delayed_refs() -> __btrfs_free_extent() runs the delayed ref for the deleted extent. 4.
    __btrfs_free_extent() -> do_free_extent_accounting() -> add_to_free_space_tree() adds the deleted extent     back to the free space tree. 5. do_free_extent_accounting() -> btrfs_update_block_group() ->     btrfs_cache_block_group() queues up the block group to get cached. block_group->progress is set to     block_group->start. 6. btrfs_commit_transaction() for transaction A calls switch_commit_roots(). It sets     block_group->last_byte_to_unpin to block_group->progress, which is block_group->start because the block     group hasn't been cached yet. 7. The caching thread gets to our block group. Since the commit roots were     already switched, load_free_space_tree() sees the deleted extent as free and adds it to the space cache.
    It finishes caching and sets block_group->progress to U64_MAX. 8. btrfs_commit_transaction() advances     transaction A to TRANS_STATE_SUPER_COMMITTED. 9. fsync calls btrfs_commit_transaction() for transaction B.
    Since transaction A is already in TRANS_STATE_SUPER_COMMITTED and the commit is for fsync, it advances.
    10. btrfs_commit_transaction() for transaction B calls switch_commit_roots(). This time, the block group     has already been cached, so it sets block_group->last_byte_to_unpin to U64_MAX. 11.
    btrfs_commit_transaction() for transaction A calls btrfs_finish_extent_commit(), which calls     unpin_extent_range() for the deleted extent. It sees last_byte_to_unpin set to U64_MAX (by transaction     B!), so it adds the deleted extent to the space cache again! This explains all of our symptoms above: * If     the sequence of events is exactly as described above, when the free space is re-added in step 11, it will     fail with EEXIST. * If another thread reallocates the deleted extent in between steps 7 and 11, then step     11 will silently re-add that space to the space cache as free even though it is actually allocated. Then,     if that space is allocated *again*, the free space tree will be corrupted (namely, the wrong item will be     deleted). * If we don't catch this free space tree corr ---truncated--- (CVE-2022-49999)

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