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

  - FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.26.0, FreeRDP's RDPEAR NDR     parser accepts one non-null NDR pointer ref-id for multiple logical pointer fields without tracking the     pointed object's expected NDR type or ownership. When the same ref-id is reused across two pointer fields,     the parser assigns the same heap object to both output fields. The generic destructor later walks each     field independently and destroys/frees both pointers. This causes a malicious-server-triggerable heap use-     after-free / double-free in the FreeRDP client's RDPEAR authentication-redirection path. This     vulnerability is fixed in 3.26.0. (CVE-2026-44422)

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