Hmm...  SSHv1 has a design flaw that makes insertion attacks possible 
(though difficult).  Is that what you meant?

I would not say that this vulnerability is being scanned for, since it 
requires access to the tcp stream of a legitimate ssh connection.

If you meant something else, could you elaborate?
