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

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: psp: require admin permission for     dev-set and key-rotate The dev-set and key-rotate netlink operations modify shared device state (PSP     version configuration and cryptographic key material, respectively) but do not require CAP_NET_ADMIN. The     only access control is psp_dev_check_access() which merely verifies netns membership. (CVE-2026-52978)

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