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

  - fast-uri accepts a host that contains an unbalanced or misplaced authority bracket without reporting an
    error. A host that starts with an opening bracket but does not end with a closing bracket is neither
    validated as an IP literal nor canonicalized as a domain name, so parse() returns it as the host with
    error undefined, while Node's URL and the HTTP clients built on it resolve the same string to a different
    host. An application that reads the parsed host to make a host decision, such as an SSRF denylist, a
    redirect allowlist, or proxy routing, and then passes the original URL to an HTTP client evaluates its
    policy against a string that is not the host the request reaches. The same host is carried through
    normalize, equal, and resolve. This affects fast-uri versions 2.4.5, 3.1.6, and 4.1.3, and is fixed in
    2.4.6, 3.1.7, and 4.1.4, where parse() reports a malformed host for any host that contains a bracket but
    is not a valid IPv6 literal. (CVE-2026-84394)

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