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

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

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - media: mediatek: vcodec: Fix potential array out-of-bounds in decoder queue_setup variable *nplanes is     provided by user via system call argument. The possible value of q_data->fmt->num_planes is 1-3, while the     value of *nplanes can be 1-8. The array access by index i can cause array out-of-bounds. Fix this bug by     checking *nplanes against the array size. (CVE-2023-53748)

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