Subject: freebsd 5.2.1 openssh hole

Hi,



i have installed the new version 5.2.1 and the ports collection from
yesterday. i have checked the server

with nessus and I got a security hole warning.



You are running a version of OpenSSH which is older than 3.7.1



Versions older than 3.7.1 are vulnerable to a flaw in the buffer
management

functions which might allow an attacker to execute arbitrary
commands on
this

host.



What can I do ? I have installed openssl from the ports tree, but I
got the
same error.
