[<Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)>] <Vulnerability in OpenSSH server (CVE-2024-6387)> about vms HOT 6 CLOSED

Hi @brookerrj,

Thanks for using Bitnami. According to the official Debian website, Debian Buster stopped receiving security updates as of June 30th, 2022. I'm afraid I don't know if Debian Buster is affected by CVE-2024-6387 because it is not listed in the CVE description webpage either. You will need to ask in a more specialized forum for further help on this.

Describe your issue as much as you can

I'm assuming that the OpenSSH server vulnerability (CVE-2024-6387) is present in Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)? How can I get fixes for this version? Will there Official Site be a fix available in the unattended-upgrades for this version?

Versions on my server:

bitnami@wordpress-1-vm:~$ sudo dpkg -l | grep ssh ii libssh2-1:amd64 1.8.0-2.1+deb10u1 amd64 SSH2 client-side library ii openssh-client 1:7.9p1-10+deb10u4 amd64 secure shell (SSH) client, for secure access to remote machines
