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.
