Discussion

Multiple Vendor SSH Server Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Multiple SSH server implementations are prone to a remote buffer-overflow vulnerability. The applications fail to properly bounds-check user-supplied input before copying it to an insufficiently sized memory buffer.

A successful attack may facilitate arbitrary code execution. Exploiting this vulnerability may allow an attacker to gain administrative access on targeted computers.
