"The remote AlmaLinux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
ALSA-2022:2031 advisory.
- A flaw has been found in libssh in versions prior to 0.9.6. The SSH protocol keeps track of two shared
secrets during the lifetime of the session. One of them is called secret_hash and the other session_id.
Initially, both of them are the same, but after key re-exchange, previous session_id is kept and used as
an input to new secret_hash. Historically, both of these buffers had shared length variable, which worked
as long as these buffers were same. But the key re-exchange operation can also change the key exchange
method, which can be based on hash of different size, eventually creating secret_hash of different size
than the session_id has. This becomes an issue when the session_id memory is zeroed or when it is used
again during second key re-exchange. (CVE-2021-3634)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
