CVE ID: | CVE-2006-6301 |
Description: | DenyHosts 2.5 does not properly parse sshd log files, which allows remote attackers to add arbitrary hosts to the /etc/hosts.deny file and cause a denial of service by adding arbitrary IP addresses to the sshd log file, as demonstrated by logging in via ssh with a login name containing certain strings with an IP address, which is not properly handled by a regular expression. |
Test IDs: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.57961 |
