Summary

Package : openssh
Vulnerability : Wrong libSSL

A former security upload of OpenSSH was linked against the wrong
version of libssl (providing an API to SSL), that version was not
available on sparc. This ought to fix a former upload that lacked
support for PAM which lead into people not being able to log in into
their server. This was only a problem on the sparc architecture.

We recommend you upgrade your ssh packages on sparc.
