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.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: mana: Skip redundant detach on     already-detached port When mana_per_port_queue_reset_work_handler() runs after a previous detach succeeded     but attach failed, the port is left in a detached state with apc->tx_qp and apc->rxqs already freed.
    Calling mana_detach() again unconditionally leads to NULL pointer dereferences during queue teardown. Add     an early exit in mana_detach() when the port is already in detached state (!netif_device_present) for non-     close callers, making it safe to call idempotently. This allows the queue reset handler and other recovery     paths to simply retry mana_attach() without redundant teardown. (CVE-2026-63972)

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