You can do a google, or check out the rpm change log for openssh.  I'm not 
sure about specific vulnerabiliies on specific versions (I just ensure 
that I'm always patched), but I *do* know that version 1 of the ssh 
protocol is seriously flawed, and that it's enabled by default on RH 
installations.  You need to edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and modify the 
Protocol line to only have Protocol 2.

Piece of trivia:  In the second Matrix movie, you'll see Trinity hack into 
a computer.  She uses a known exploit of the ssh v1 protocol to do it. :)
