Vulneability on SSH due to Cipher Block Chaining

AVRAHAM NINO

Level 1

Hello,

I have a Nexus 7018 sup1 running on version 6.2(24a) .

When I scan the device for vulnerability after the upgrade, it found vulnerability due to "SSH Server CBC Mode Ciphers Enabled".

SSH Server CBC Mode Ciphers Enabled

Synopsis :

The SSH server is configured to use Cipher Block Chaining.

Description :

The SSH server is configured to support Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) encryption. This may allow an attacker to recover the plaintext message from the ciphertext.

Note that this plugin only checks for the options of the SSH server and does not check for vulnerable software versions.

Solution :

Contact the vendor or consult product documentation to disable CBC mode cipher encryption, and enable CTR or GCM cipher mode encryption.

 

Can any one assist in fixing this issue?
