The NX-OS Software uses CiscoSSH which is derived from OpenSSH and could be vulnerable to CVE-2023-48795 but the Security Impact Rating (SIR) is Low because the security impact of this attack very limited as it only allows deletion of consecutive messages, and deleting most messages at this stage of the protocol prevents user authentication from proceeding. In addition: • The attacker needs to be on a privileged position and be able to intercept and modify the SSH initial session setup packet exchange, and • The SSH server must either (only one is enough) * Offer the chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com as an encryption algorithm or * Using an encryption algorithm in CBC mode *and* an -etm@openssh.com hashing algorithm
