The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'openssl094' package(s) announced via the DSA-875-1 advisory. Yutaka Oiwa discovered a vulnerability in the OpenSSL library that can allow an attacker to perform active protocol-version rollback attacks that could lead to the use of the weaker SSL 2.0 protocol even though both ends support SSL 3.0 or TLS 1.0. The advisories recommend upgrading libssl packages
