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

- drm/vmwgfx: drop dma_buf reference on foreign-fd prime import ttm_prime_fd_to_handle() returns -ENOSYS
when the imported fd's dma_buf->ops do not match the ttm_object_device's ops, but does so without
releasing the reference acquired by dma_buf_get(). Any unprivileged renderD client passing a non-vmwgfx
prime fd through the DRM_VMW_GB_SURFACE_REF{,_EXT} path leaks one dma_buf reference per call and
indefinitely pins the foreign exporter's GEM resources. Funnel the error path through the existing
dma_buf_put() so the reference is always dropped. (CVE-2026-80888)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
