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

  - A time-of-check time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition was found in the abrt-dbus D-Bus service's SetElement
    method. Between dump directory creation and post-create event execution, any local user can call
    SetElement to write arbitrary text files into the root-owned dump directory, bypassing package validation
    and allowing crashes of unpackaged binaries to survive post-create processing. (CVE-2026-54228)

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