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

  - accel/qaic: Clean up integer overflow checking in map_user_pages() The encode_dma() function has some     validation on in_trans->size but it would be more clear to move those checks to find_and_map_user_pages().
    The encode_dma() had two checks: if (in_trans->addr + in_trans->size < in_trans->addr || !in_trans->size)     return -EINVAL; The in_trans->addr variable is the starting address. The in_trans->size variable is the     total size of the transfer. The transfer can occur in parts and the resources->xferred_dma_size tracks how     many bytes we have already transferred. This patch introduces a new variable remaining which represents     the amount we want to transfer (in_trans->size) minus the amount we have already transferred     (resources->xferred_dma_size). I have modified the check for if in_trans->size is zero to instead check if     in_trans->size is less than resources->xferred_dma_size. If we have already transferred more bytes than     in_trans->size then there are negative bytes remaining which doesn't make sense. If there are zero bytes     remaining to be copied, just return success. The check in encode_dma() checked that addr + size could     not overflow and barring a driver bug that should work, but it's easier to check if we do this in parts.
    First check that in_trans->addr + resources->xferred_dma_size is safe. Then check that xfer_start_addr     + remaining is safe. My final concern was that we are dealing with u64 values but on 32bit systems the     kmalloc() function will truncate the sizes to 32 bits. So I calculated total = in_trans->size +     offset_in_page(xfer_start_addr); and returned -EINVAL if it were >= SIZE_MAX. This will not affect 64bit     systems. (CVE-2023-53778)

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