    descriptionAccording to its banner, the version of OpenSSH running on the remote host is older than 3.2.3. It therefore may be affected by an authentication bypass issue. On systems using YP with netgroups, sshd authenticates users via ACL by checking for the requested username and password. Under certain conditions when doing ACL checks, it may instead use the password entry of a different user for authentication. This means unauthorized users could authenticate successfully, and authorized users could be locked out.

    NASL idSUNSSH_PLAINTEXT_RECOVERY.NASL
    descriptionThe version of SunSSH running on the remote host has an information disclosure vulnerability. A design flaw in the SSH specification could allow a man-in-the-middle attacker to recover up to 32 bits of plaintext from an SSH-protected connection in the standard configuration. An attacker could exploit this to gain access to sensitive information. Note that this version of SunSSH is also prone to several additional issues but Nessus did not test for them.

An attacker may exploit these vulnerabilities to gain a shell on the remote system. Note that several distributions patched this hole without changing the version number of OpenSSH.
