"The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 6.06 (SP), has openssh packages installed that are affected by
multiple vulnerabilities:

  - In ssh in OpenSSH before 9.6, OS command injection might occur if a user name or host name has shell
    metacharacters, and this name is referenced by an expansion token in certain situations. For example, an
    untrusted Git repository can have a submodule with shell metacharacters in a user name or host name.
    (CVE-2023-51385)

  - The SSH transport protocol with certain OpenSSH extensions, found in OpenSSH before 9.6 and other
    products, allows remote attackers to bypass integrity checks such that some packets are omitted (from the
    extension negotiation message), and a client and server may consequently end up with a connection for
    which some security features have been downgraded or disabled, aka a Terrapin attack. This occurs because
    the SSH Binary Packet Protocol (BPP), implemented by these extensions, mishandles the handshake phase and
    mishandles use of sequence numbers. For example, there is an effective attack against SSH's use of
    ChaCha20-Poly1305 (and CBC with Encrypt-then-MAC). The bypass occurs in [email protected] and
    (if CBC is used) the [email protected] MAC algorithms. This also affects Maverick Synergy Java SSH API
