"The version of kernel installed on the remote Azure Linux 3.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore,
affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2025-38259 advisory.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: codecs: wcd9335: Fix missing
    free of regulator supplies Driver gets and enables all regulator supplies in probe path
    (wcd9335_parse_dt() and wcd9335_power_on_reset()), but does not cleanup in final error paths and in unbind
    (missing remove() callback). This leads to leaked memory and unbalanced regulator enable count during
    probe errors or unbind. Fix this by converting entire code into devm_regulator_bulk_get_enable() which
    also greatly simplifies the code. (CVE-2025-38259)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
