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: KVM: arm64: Fix uninitialized memcache     pointer in user_mem_abort() Commit fce886a60207 (KVM: arm64: Plumb the pKVM MMU in KVM) made the     initialization of the local memcache variable in user_mem_abort() conditional, leaving a codepath where it     is used uninitialized via kvm_pgtable_stage2_map(). This can fail on any path that requires a stage-2     allocation without transition via a permission fault or dirty logging. Fix this by making sure that     memcache is always valid. (CVE-2025-37996)

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