  <summary>Security update for openssh</summary>
  <description>This update for openssh fixes the following issues:

- CVE-2023-38408: Fixed a condition where specific libaries loaded via
  ssh-agent(1)'s PKCS#11 support could be abused to achieve remote code
  execution via a forwarded agent socket if those libraries were present on the
  victim's system and if the agent was forwarded to an attacker-controlled
  system. [bsc#1213504, CVE-2023-38408]

- Close the right filedescriptor and also close fdh in read_hmac to avoid file
  descriptor leaks. [bsc#1209536]

- Attempts to mitigate instances of secrets lingering in memory after a session
  exits. [bsc#1186673, bsc#1213004, bsc#1213008]
