The remote host is missing an update for the 'libssh2' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. A type confusion issue was found in the way libssh2 generated ephemeral secrets for the diffie-hellman-group1 and diffie-hellman-group14 key exchange methods. Red Hat recommends upgrading to updated packages containing a backported patch to correct this issue

significantly less secure random parameters. (CVE-2016-0787)

Red Hat would like to thank Aris Adamantiadis for reporting this issue.
