It might be best to contact the vendor for a definitive answer.  While  
SSH.com's advisory says it affects "all POSIX Unixes (AIX, Linux, HP- 
UX, Solaris, any BSD)", I'm not familiar enough with either the  
product itself or OpenVMS to know if using the OS along with, say, its  
UNIX (POSIX) interfaces makes it vulnerable.

Note that there was an issue reported with the OpenVMS SSH late last  
month -- CVE-2008-0214 -- that we do not check for.
