"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.
- The address_space_write_continue function in exec.c in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator) allows local guest OS
privileged users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds access and guest instance crash) by
leveraging use of qemu_map_ram_ptr to access guest ram block area. (CVE-2017-11334)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
