"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.
- sctp: validate Adaptation Indication parameter length The Adaptation Layer Indication parameter contains a
fixed 32-bit Adaptation Code Point after its parameter header. However, sctp_verify_param() accepts a
header-only parameter because the generic parameter walker only requires the header to be present.
sctp_process_param() then reads adaptation_ind beyond the declared parameter. When the malformed parameter
is last in an INIT, the read starts at the receive skb tail, and the value is copied into the state cookie
returned in the INIT ACK. This may disclose four receive-buffer tail bytes. Require the declared parameter
length to match the fixed structure size and abort the association through the existing invalid parameter
length path otherwise. (CVE-2026-80717)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
