The remote Ubuntu 24.04 LTS / 25.10 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-8094-1 advisory.

    Qualys discovered that several vulnerabilities existed in the AppArmor Linux kernel Security Module (LSM).
    An unprivileged local attacker could use these issues to load, replace, and remove arbitrary AppArmor     profiles causing denial of service, exposure of sensitive information (kernel memory), local privilege     escalation, or possibly escape a container. (LP: #2143853)

    It was discovered that some AMD Zen 5 processors supporting RDSEED instruction did not properly handle     entropy, potentially resulting in the consumption of insufficiently random values. A local attacker could     possibly use this issue to influence the values returned by the RDSEED instruction causing loss of     confidentiality and integrity. (CVE-2025-62626)

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.

  - gpio: cdev: make sure the cdev fd is still active before emitting events With the final call to fput() on     a file descriptor, the release action may be deferred and scheduled on a work queue. The reference count     of that descriptor is still zero and it must not be used. It's possible that a GPIO change, we want to     notify the user-space about, happens AFTER the reference count on the file descriptor associated with the     character device went down to zero but BEFORE the .release() callback was called from the workqueue and so     BEFORE we unregistered from the notifier. Using the regular get_file() routine in this situation triggers     the following warning: struct file::f_count incremented from zero; use-after-free condition present! So     use the get_file_active() variant that will return NULL on file descriptors that have been or are being     released. (CVE-2025-40249)

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