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: HID: winwing: Add NULL check in     winwing_init_led() devm_kasprintf() can return a NULL pointer on failure,but this returned value in     winwing_init_led() is not checked. Add NULL check in winwing_init_led(), to handle kernel NULL pointer     dereference error. (CVE-2024-58021)

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

The remote Ubuntu 24.04 LTS / 24.10 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-7521-1 advisory.
