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

  - Incus is a system container and virtual machine manager. Prior to version 6.23.0, a lack of validation of     the image fingerprint when downloading from simplestreams image servers opens the door to image cache     poisoning and under very narrow circumstances exposes other tenants to running attacker controlled images     rather than the expected one. Version 6.23.0 patches the issue. (CVE-2026-33542)

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

The remote Debian 13 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dsa-6184 advisory.
