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

  - mm/damon/core: disallow overlapping input ranges for damon_set_regions() damon_set_regions() assumes the     input ranges are sorted by the address and don't overlap each other. Hence the assumption was initially to     be explicitly validated. But commit 97d482f4592f (mm/damon/sysfs: reuse damon_set_regions() for regions     setting) has mistakenly removed the validation. This can make DAMON behave in unexpected ways. At the     best, the monitoring results snapshot will just look weird since there will be overlapping regions. DAMOS     will also work weirdly, applying the same action multiple times for overlapping regions, and make DAMOS     quota weird. More seriously, depending on the setup and regions updates sequence, negative size regions     can be made. It will trigger WARN_ONCE() if the kernel is built with CONFIG_DAMON_DEBUG_SANITY=y.
    Depending on the monitoring results, the negative size region can further trigger division by zero in     damon_merge_two_regions(). Note that some of the consequences including the WARN_ONCE() and the divide by     zero depend on commits that were introduced after the root cause commit 97d482f4592f (mm/damon/sysfs:
    reuse damon_set_regions() for regions setting). Fix the problems by checking the assumption and returning     an error if the input ranges don't meet the assumption. The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.
    (CVE-2026-68164)

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

An update of the linux package has been released.

The remote Debian 12 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-4745 advisory.
