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

  - ovpn: tcp - fix packet extraction from stream When processing TCP stream data in ovpn_tcp_recv, we receive     large cloned skbs from __strp_rcv that may contain multiple coalesced packets. The current implementation     has two bugs: 1. Header offset overflow: Using pskb_pull with large offsets on coalesced skbs causes     skb->data - skb->head to exceed the u16 storage of skb->network_header. This causes     skb_reset_network_header to fail on the inner decapsulated packet, resulting in packet drops. 2. Unaligned     protocol headers: Extracting packets from arbitrary positions within the coalesced TCP stream provides no     alignment guarantees for the packet data causing performance penalties on architectures without efficient     unaligned access. Additionally, openvpn's 2-byte length prefix on TCP packets causes the subsequent 4-byte     opcode and packet ID fields to be inherently misaligned. Fix both issues by allocating a new skb for each     openvpn packet and using skb_copy_bits to extract only the packet content into the new buffer, skipping     the 2-byte length prefix. Also, check the length before invoking the function that performs the allocation     to avoid creating an invalid skb. If the packet has to be forwarded to userspace the 2-byte prefix can be     pushed to the head safely, without misalignment. As a side effect, this approach also avoids the expensive     linearization that pskb_pull triggers on cloned skbs with page fragments. In testing, this resulted in TCP     throughput improvements of up to 74%. (CVE-2026-43254)

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