Debian Security Advisory DSA-027-1 security@debian.org
Debian -- Security Information Martin Schulze
February 8, 2001
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : openssh
Vulnerability : remote memory overwrite, key exchange problem
Type : remote exploit
Debian-specific: no
This upload fixes:
1. Prior versions of OpenSSH are vulnerable to a remote arbitrary
memory overwrite attack which may eventually lead into a root
exploit. No exploit program is known yet but expected to come up
soon.
2. CORE-SDI has described a problem with regards to RSA key exchange
and a Bleichenbacher attack to gather the session key from an ssh
session.
We recommend you upgrade your openssh package immediately.
wget url

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
