  - A flaw was found in the VirGL virtual OpenGL renderer (virglrenderer). The virgl did not properly
    initialize memory when allocating a host-backed memory resource. A malicious guest could use this flaw to
    mmap from the guest kernel and read this uninitialized memory from the host, possibly leading to
    information disclosure. (CVE-2022-0175)

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