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

  - A vulnerability was detected in Freedesktop Poppler 26.07.0. This issue affects the function
    SampledFunction::SampledFunction of the file poppler/Function.cc of the component SampledFunction. The
    manipulation of the argument BitsPerSample results in integer overflow. The attack may be performed from
    remote. The exploit is now public and may be used. The project was informed of the problem early through a
    bug report but has not responded yet. (CVE-2026-93311)

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