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

  - iommufd: Prevent ALIGN() overflow When allocating IOVA the candidate range gets aligned to the target     alignment. If the range is close to ULONG_MAX then the ALIGN() can wrap resulting in a corrupted iova.
    Open code the ALIGN() using get_add_overflow() to prevent this. This simplifies the checks as we don't     need to check for length earlier either. Consolidate the two copies of this code under a single helper.
    This bug would allow userspace to create a mapping that overlaps with some other mapping or a reserved     range. (CVE-2025-38688)

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

The remote Oracle Linux 10 / 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2025-20662 advisory.
