Open SSH 3.6.1p2 Security

SuperDude123 · 01-13-2009, 04:04 PM

I just learned that my Damn Small Linux Box has OpenSSH_3.6.1p2 on Debian 1:3.6.1p2-9 . Should I try to update this version of OpenSSH or is this one ok? If I need to update, how do I do it? It would have to be done via SSH since I am at a remote location.

How about searching Debian's DSA's or search http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=, http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/search and http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/html/search ? Plenty of official resources to find out I'd say. "How to install" isn't typically a Linux Security issue I'd say but maybe one of the followups may expand on that.
