Version : 6.0p1-4+deb7u6
CVE ID : CVE-2016-6515
Debian Bug : 833823
OpenSSH secure shell client and server had a denial of service
vulnerability reported.
CVE-2016-6515
The password authentication function in sshd in OpenSSH before 7.3
does not limit password lengths for password authentication, which
allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service

We recommend that you upgrade your openssh packages.
