"The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS / 26.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as
referenced in the USN-8705-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that OpenZFS incorrectly handled authorization checks for certain ioctl operations on
    Linux. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to perform pool-administrative operations or access
    privileged information, resulting in an authorization bypass.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

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