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

  - undici's WebSocket client crashes the whole Node.js process during the opening handshake when a server
    responds with a subprotocol that the client never requested. A default WebSocket connection sends no
    subprotocol, but if the server's 101 response includes a Sec-WebSocket-Protocol header, undici
    dereferences a null value while checking it against the requested list and throws an uncaught TypeError.
    Because that code runs inside a microtask with no surrounding error handling, the exception propagates and
    terminates the process under Node's default behavior, instead of gracefully failing the connection as
    required by the WebSocket protocol. Any application that opens a WebSocket to an attacker-controlled or
    compromised server, or over a plaintext connection subject to a machine-in-the-middle, can be crashed
    remotely without authentication in the default configuration. This affects undici versions from 6.7.0 up
    to 6.28.1, from 7.0.0 up to 7.29.1, and from 8.0.0 up to 8.10.2. Users should upgrade to undici 6.28.1,
    7.29.1, or 8.10.2. (CVE-2026-19534)

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