 - If a Cisco device is on a latest and or a latest advisory software version , and there is a business concern for the particular security problem then you must contact     TAC , and escalate ,

Dear;

If you upgraded the devices with new image due to recent OpenSSH vulnerability, then you need to wait for some time. Cisco identified the Product Nexus 9000 NXOS is vulnerable. Till now they don't release the fix or work around. Find the below link with reference to Cisco Security Advisory & Bug id.

The exploit requires an authentication prompt, which means if you implement a simple VTY ACL to block access from the internet while allowing access from a specific jumphost, you create a barrier that must fail before the exploit becomes a risk.
