CVE ID: | CVE-2005-2666 |
Description: | SSH, as implemented in OpenSSH before 4.0 and possibly other implementations, stores hostnames, IP addresses, and keys in plaintext in the known_hosts file, which makes it easier for an attacker that has compromised an SSH user's account to generate a list of additional targets that are more likely to have the same password or key. |
Test IDs: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.62377 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.58240 |
