It was discovered that the fix for the security vulnerability released for rssh in 2.3.4-4+deb8u2 via DLA-1660-1 introduced a regression that blocked scp(1) of multiple files from a server using rssh.
Please see <https://bugs.debian.org/921655> for more information.
For Debian 8 'Jessie', this issue has been addressed in rssh version 2.3.4-4+deb8u3.
We recommend that you upgrade your rssh packages.
NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
