According to its banner, the remote host appears to be running OpenSSH version between 2.5.x and 2.9. Such versions reportedly contain multiple vulnerabilities :
sftp-server does not respect the ‘command=’ argument of keys in the authorized_keys2 file. (CVE-2001-0816)
sshd does not properly handle the ‘from=’ argument of keys in the authorized_keys2 file. If a key of one type (e.g. RSA) is followed by a key of another type (e.g. DSA) then the options for the latter will be applied to the former, including ‘from=’ restrictions. This problem allows users to circumvent the system policy and login from disallowed source IP addresses. (CVE-2001-1380)
