The SUSE operating system SSH server must be configured to use only FIPS-validated key exchange algorithms.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Without cryptographic integrity protections provided by FIPS-validated cryptographic algorithms, information can be viewed and altered by unauthorized users without detection. The system will attempt to use the first algorithm presented by the client that matches the server list.
