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.

  - io_uring: fix io_req_prep_async with provided buffers io_req_prep_async() can import provided buffers,     commit the ring state by giving up on that before, it'll be reimported later if needed. (CVE-2025-40364)

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