Low severity and CVSS score in ssh1_proto_enabled.nasl

Plugin ssh1_proto_enabled.nasl (version 1.18) rates CVE-2001-0361 as
Low with CVSS 2.6, which seems rather odd, especially considering that
it should be rated similarly to SSLv2.

According to CVE/NVD the CVSS score is in fact 4.0:
http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2001-0361

The following patch fixes the issue:

--- ssh1_proto_enabled.nasl.orig 2009-02-24 21:15:13.000000000 -0600
+++ ssh1_proto_enabled.nasl 2009-03-10 13:13:49.000000000 -0400
