The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory SUSE-SA:2006:058 (openssl).
Several security problems were found and fixed in the OpenSSL cryptographic library.
CVE-2006-3738/VU#547300:
A Google security audit found a buffer overflow condition within the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function which has been fixed.
CVE-2006-4343/VU#386964:
The above Google security audit also found that the OpenSSL SSLv2 client code fails to properly check for NULL which could lead to a server program using openssl to crash.
CVE-2006-2937:
Fix mishandling of an error condition in parsing of certain invalid ASN1 structures, which could result in an infinite loop which consumes system memory.
CVE-2006-2940:
Certain types of public key can take disproportionate amounts of time to process. This could be used by an attacker in a denial of service attack to cause the remote side top spend an excessive amount of time in computation.
