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

  - net/smc: fix warning in smc_rx_splice() when calling get_page() smc_lo_register_dmb() allocates DMB     buffers with kzalloc(), which are later passed to get_page() in smc_rx_splice(). Since kmalloc memory is     not page-backed, this triggers WARN_ON_ONCE() in get_page() and prevents holding a refcount on the buffer.
    This can lead to use-after-free if the memory is released before splice_to_pipe() completes. Use     folio_alloc() instead, ensuring DMBs are page-backed and safe for get_page().
