The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'bouncycastle' package(s) announced via the DLA-2433-1 advisory. It was discovered that there was an issue in the bouncycastle crypto library where attackers could obtain sensitive information due to observable differences in its response to invalid input

CVE-2020-26939

In Legion of the Bouncy Castle BC before 1.55 and BC-FJA before 1.0.1.2, attackers can obtain sensitive information about a private exponent because of Observable Differences in Behavior to Error Inputs. This occurs in org.bouncycastle.crypto.encodings.OAEPEncoding. Sending invalid ciphertext that decrypts to a short payload in the OAEP Decoder could result in the throwing of an early exception, potentially leaking some information about the private exponent of the RSA private key performing the encryption.

For Debian 9 Stretch, these problems have been fixed in version 1.56-1+deb9u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your bouncycastle packages.
