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

  - perf/core: Handle buffer mapping fail correctly in perf_mmap() After successful allocation of a buffer or     a successful attachment to an existing buffer perf_mmap() tries to map the buffer read only into the page     table. If that fails, the already set up page table entries are zapped, but the other perf specific side     effects of that failure are not handled. The calling code just cleans up the VMA and does not invoke     perf_mmap_close(). This leaks reference counts, corrupts user->vm accounting and also results in an     unbalanced invocation of event::event_mapped(). Cure this by moving the event::event_mapped() invocation     before the map_range() call so that on map_range() failure perf_mmap_close() can be invoked without     causing an unbalanced event::event_unmapped() call. perf_mmap_close() undoes the reference counts and     eventually frees buffers. (CVE-2025-38564)

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

The remote openSUSE 16 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the openSUSE-SU-2025-20081-1 advisory.
