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: f2fs: avoid format-overflow warning     With gcc and W=1 option, there's a warning like this: fs/f2fs/compress.c: In function     f2fs_init_page_array_cache': fs/f2fs/compress.c:1984:47: error: %u' directive writing between 1 and 7     bytes into a region of size between 5 and 8 [-Werror=format-overflow=] 1984 | sprintf(slab_name,     f2fs_page_array_entry-%u:%u, MAJOR(dev), MINOR(dev)); | ^~ String f2fs_page_array_entry-%u:%u can up     to 35. The first %u can up to 4 and the second %u can up to 7, so total size is 24 + 4 + 7 = 35.
    slab_name's size should be 35 rather than 32. (CVE-2023-52748)

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

An update of the linux package has been released.
