SSH-1.0-SSH_Version_Mapp
er.  Don't panic.

They are looking for the "CRC-32 compensation attack detector vulnerability"
. I got burned by this at the start of the year, very very nasty. Also, not
to distract blame from myself for not keeping up with things, but the
OpenSSH site does not make it clear enough IMHO that this bug affects 1.0
daemons - I think it should be splashed across their home page FWIW,

And the worst httpd bug I've heard of recently (in years) is the
directory traversal bug.
