Sophos UTM 9 to have OpenSSH version and higher

Our Sophos has been detected to have a security issue. Please see the listed threats provided by the Security Compliance Team. They have advised that OpenSSH 7.4 has been released to fix these. Is it possible to have the said OpenSSH Version?

 

Threat1:
Multiple Vulnerabilities have been reported in OpenSSH.
The kbdint_next_device function in auth2-chall.c in sshd in OpenSSH through 6.9 does not properly restrict the processing of keyboard-interactive devices within a single connection. (CVE-2015-5600)
- The monitor component in sshd in OpenSSH before 7.0 on non-OpenBSD platforms accepts extraneous username data in MONITOR_REQ_PAM_INIT_CTX requests. (CVE-2015-6563)
- Use-after-free vulnerability in the mm_answer_pam_free_ctx function in monitor.c in sshd in OpenSSH before 7.0 on non-OpenBSD platforms might allow local users to gain privileges. (CVE-2015-6564)

Threat2:
"OpenSSH (OpenBSD Secure Shell) is a set of computer programs providing encrypted communication sessions over a computer network using the SSH protocol.

Multiple Vulnerabilities have been reported in OpenSSH v7.3 and earlier. These vulnerabilities if exploited will allow code execution, privilege escalation, information disclosure and denial of service attacks."

  • The OpenSSH version in UTM 9.502 is 6.6.1p1.  The developers rarely have the latest versions as it's easier to patch the existing version they know than to vet an entire new version and integrate it.  In order to learn if any of these vulnerabilities apply to the hardened version in the UTM and have not been remediated, you could open a case with Sophos Support.
