The remote Fedora 39 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2024-d946b9ad25 advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.

"The remote Fedora 39 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
FEDORA-2024-d946b9ad25 advisory.
- The SSH transport protocol with certain OpenSSH extensions, found in OpenSSH before 9.6 and other
products, allows remote attackers to bypass integrity checks such that some packets are omitted (from the
extension negotiation message), and a client and server may consequently end up with a connection for
which some security features have been downgraded or disabled, aka a Terrapin attack. This occurs because
the SSH Binary Packet Protocol (BPP), implemented by these extensions, mishandles the handshake phase and
mishandles use of sequence numbers. For example, there is an effective attack against SSH's use of
ChaCha20-Poly1305 (and CBC with Encrypt-then-MAC). The bypass occurs in [email protected] and
(if CBC is used) the [email protected] MAC algorithms. This also affects Maverick Synergy Java SSH API
