"The version of openssh installed on the remote host is prior to 9.3p2. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as
referenced in the SSA:2023-200-02 advisory.

  - The PKCS#11 feature in ssh-agent in OpenSSH before 9.3p2 has an insufficiently trustworthy search path,
    leading to remote code execution if an agent is forwarded to an attacker-controlled system. (Code in
    /usr/lib is not necessarily safe for loading into ssh-agent.) NOTE: this issue exists because of an
    incomplete fix for CVE-2016-10009. (CVE-2023-38408)

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