*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***

Public security bug reported:

Now that OpenSSL 1.1.1 has been added to Bionic, we would like to update
OpenSSH to a version that can be linked to OpenSSL 1.1.1.

We would like to do this for two reasons:

1- The security team would like for the entirety of packages in main to be linked to OpenSSL 1.1.1 for maintenance reasons.
2- The security team would like OpenSSH to be build against OpenSSL 1.1.1 for FIPS certification.

Version (1:7.9p1-10) from Disco is compatible with OpenSSL 1.1.1, and
would be the version we would use.

** Affects: openssh (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 1832356
   Upgrade OpenSSH to 7.9p1-10 or better in stable series
