SYNOPSIS

The remote Fedora host is missing one or more security updates.


DESCRIPTION

The remote Fedora 37 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple
vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2023-79a18e1725 advisory.

- The PKCS#11 feature in ssh-agent in OpenSSH before 9.3p2 has an insufficiently
trustworthy search path, leading to remote code execution if an agent is
forwarded to an attacker-controlled system. (Code in /usr/lib is not necessarily
safe for loading into ssh-agent.) NOTE: this issue exists because of an
incomplete fix for CVE-2016-10009. (CVE-2023-38408)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on
the application's self-reported version number.


SOLUTION

Update the affected openssh package.
