"The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as
referenced in the RHSA-2024:0455 advisory.

    OpenSSH is an SSH protocol implementation supported by a number of Linux, UNIX, and similar operating
    systems. It includes the core files necessary for both the OpenSSH client and server.

    Security Fix(es):

    * ssh: Prefix truncation attack on Binary Packet Protocol (BPP) (CVE-2023-48795)

    * openssh: potential command injection via shell metacharacters (CVE-2023-51385)

    For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and
    other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
