"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.
- chi versions before v5.2.2 contain an open redirect vulnerability in the RedirectSlashes middleware
function that uses the Host header to construct redirect URLs. Attackers can manipulate the Host header to
redirect users to arbitrary hosts, enabling phishing attacks and credential theft. (CVE-2025-71405)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
