Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu 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.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: platform/x86: dell-uart-backlight: fix     serdev race The dell_uart_bl_serdev_probe() function calls devm_serdev_device_open() before setting the     client ops via serdev_device_set_client_ops(). This ordering can trigger a NULL pointer dereference in the     serdev controller's receive_buf handler, as it assumes serdev->ops is valid when SERPORT_ACTIVE is set.
    This is similar to the issue fixed in commit 5e700b384ec1 (platform/chrome: cros_ec_uart: properly fix     race condition) where devm_serdev_device_open() was called before fully initializing the device. Fix the     race by ensuring client ops are set before enabling the port via devm_serdev_device_open(). Note,     serdev_device_set_baudrate() and serdev_device_set_flow_control() calls should be after the     devm_serdev_device_open() call. (CVE-2025-21695)

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

    It was discovered that the CIFS network file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly     verify the target namespace when handling upcalls. An attacker could use this to expose sensitive     information. (CVE-2025-2312)
