"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.

  - A vulnerability classified as problematic was found in GNU Binutils 2.43/2.44. Affected by this
    vulnerability is the function bfd_set_format of the file format.c. The manipulation leads to memory
    corruption. The attack can be launched remotely. The complexity of an attack is rather high. The
    exploitation appears to be difficult. Upgrading to version 2.45 is able to address this issue. The
    identifier of the patch is 8d97c1a53f3dc9fd8e1ccdb039b8a33d50133150. It is recommended to upgrade the
    affected component. (CVE-2025-1153)

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