The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'zsh' package(s) announced via the DLA-2926-1 advisory. It was discovered that zsh, a powerful shell and scripting language, did not prevent recursive prompt expansion, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary commands into a user's shell

For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been fixed in version 5.3.1-4+deb9u5.

We recommend that you upgrade your zsh packages.

For the detailed security status of zsh please refer to its security tracker page at: [link moved to references]
