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.
