  - Suricata is a network IDS, IPS and NSM engine developed by the OISF (Open Information Security Foundation)
    and the Suricata community. Prior to versions 7.0.13 and 8.0.2, working with large buffers in Lua scripts
    can lead to a stack overflow. Users of Lua rules and output scripts may be affected when working with
    large buffers. This includes a rule passing a large buffer to a Lua script. This issue has been patched in
    versions 7.0.13 and 8.0.2. A workaround for this issue involves disabling Lua rules and output scripts, or
    making sure limits, such as stream.depth.reassembly and HTTP response body limits (response-body-limit),
    are set to less than half the stack size. (CVE-2025-64344)

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