"According to the versions of the openssh packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by
the following vulnerabilities :

    A vulnerability was found in OpenSSH when the VerifyHostKeyDNS option is enabled. A machine-in-the-middle
    attack can be performed by a malicious machine impersonating a legit server. This issue occurs due to how
    OpenSSH mishandles error codes in specific conditions when verifying the host key. For an attack to be
    considered successful, the attacker needs to manage to exhaust the client's memory resource first, turning
    the attack complexity high.(CVE-2025-26465)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS openssh security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
