SSH

The SSH protocol server sshd allows local users without shell access to redirect a TCP connection through a service that uses the standard system password database for authentication, such as POP or FTP.

ssh 2.0.12, and possibly other versions, allows valid user names to attempt to enter the correct password multiple times, but only prompts an invalid user name for a password once, which allows remote attackers to determine user account names on the server.

SSH server (sshd2) before 2.0.12 does not properly record login attempts if the connection is closed before the maximum number of tries, allowing a remote attacker to guess the password without showing up in the audit logs.

A race condition in the authentication agent mechanism of sshd 1.2.17 allows an attacker to steal another user's credentials.

In some instances of SSH 1.2.27 and 2.0.11 on Linux systems, SSH will allow users with expired accounts to login.

SSH 2.0.11 and earlier allows local users to request remote forwarding from privileged ports without being root.

SSH 1.2.25 on HP-UX allows access to new user accounts.

SSH 1.2.25, 1.2.23, and other versions, when used in in CBC (Cipher Block Chaining) or CFB (Cipher Feedback 64 bits) modes, allows remote attackers to insert arbitrary data into an existing stream between an SSH client and server by using a known plaintext attack and computing a…
