We are using Balance 2500 (Firmware 8.5.0).Nessus flags OpenSSH as High Risk.What is the solution?

Hi,

I would strongly suggest you upgrade your device firmware. You are currently several patches behind as the latest GA release is 8.5.4 (with 8.6.0 coming out soon as well).

Best regards,
Simonas

After firmware upgrade, Issue still remains.

We shall address this on coming 8.6.0 RC but not likely on Beta.

What time will it be?

I estimate to be around late May or early June.

It seems like waiting for the 8.6.0 release mentioned earlier is the best course of action, as the current firmware patches haven’t fully cleared that specific Nessus alert yet.
