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: RDMA/cma: Allow UD qp_type to join     multicast only As for multicast: - The SIDR is the only mode that makes sense; - Besides PS_UDP, other     port spaces like PS_IB is also allowed, as it is UD compatible. In this case qkey also needs to be set     [1]. This patch allows only UD qp_type to join multicast, and set qkey to default if it's not set, to fix     an uninit-value error: the ib->rec.qkey field is accessed without being initialized.
