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: drm/amd/display: Fix potential memory     leak in DMUB hw_init [Why] On resume we perform DMUB hw_init which allocates memory:
    dm_resume->dm_dmub_hw_init->dc_dmub_srv_create->kzalloc That results in memory leak in suspend/resume     scenarios. [How] Allocate memory for the DC wrapper to DMUB only if it was not allocated before. No need     to reallocate it on suspend/resume. (CVE-2021-47253)

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

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2024:2185-1 advisory.
