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

  - A vulnerability has been found in FFmpeg up to 4.4.6/5.1.8/6.1.4/7.1.3/8.0.1. Affected by this issue is
    the function setup_3x3 of the file libavfilter/vf_convolution.c of the component Convolution Filter. Such
    manipulation leads to out-of-bounds read. The attack can be executed remotely. The exploit has been
    disclosed to the public and may be used. Upgrading to version 4.4.7, 5.1.9, 6.1.5, 7.1.4, 8.0.2, 8.1.1 and
    9.0 can resolve this issue. The name of the patch is 8970658472/e24b9820b4. It is suggested to upgrade the
    affected component. (CVE-2026-90815)

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