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

  - btrfs: protect sb_write_pointer() with invalidate lock sb_write_pointer() reads the super block from the     block device page cache using read_cache_page_gfp(). This has the same race with BLKBSZSET as the one     fixed by commit 3f29d661e568 (btrfs: sync read disk super and set block size). Take the mapping     invalidate lock around read_cache_page_gfp() to serialize the read against block size changes.
    (CVE-2026-98907)

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