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 before 6.2, mm/memory-tiers.c misinterprets the alloc_memory_type return value     (expects it to be NULL in the error case, whereas it is actually an error pointer). NOTE: this is disputed     by third parties because there are no realistic cases in which a user can cause the alloc_memory_type     error case to be reached. (CVE-2023-23005)

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