The remote host is running FortressSSH, an enterprise-class SSH server for Windows.

According to its banner, the installed version of this software reportedly contains a buffer overflow vulnerability involving a boundary error in the logging of contents of ‘SSH_MSG_KEXINIT’ messages. An unauthenticated attacker may be able to leverage this issue to crash the affected application or to execute arbitrary code on the affected host
