The "patch" tag from NIST's web page links to the 8.3p1 vs 8.4p1 comparison<https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/compare/V_8_3_P1...V_8_4_P1> on GitHub. Is there, however, any one specific patch, which could be backported to our version or is updating to 8.4p1 the only solution for this CVE? Thank you in advance for your help!

There is no patch for that CVE (not even in openssh-8.4p1). It is by 
most considered as a usability feature rather than CVE.
