WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED! IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY! 

Trying to ssh onto a unix server and getting below message on the prompt.

Removed /home/oracle/.ssh/known_hosts and was able to access the server without issues.

IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY!
Someone could be eavesdropping on you right now (man-in-the-middle attack)!
It is also possible that the RSA host key has just been changed.
The fingerprint for the RSA key sent by the remote host is
09:10:5e:74:14:26:5d:b6:5a:1a:73:59:7d:d3:c2:6a.
Please contact your system administrator.
Add correct host key in /home/oracle/.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of this message.
Offending key in /home/oracle/.ssh/known_hosts:54
RSA host key for <IP_address> has changed and you have requested strict checking.

Host key verification failed.
