Category:Gentoo Local Security Checks
Title:Gentoo Security Advisory GLSA 201601-01
Summary:Gentoo Linux Local Security Checks GLSA 201601-01
Description:Summary:
Gentoo Linux Local Security Checks GLSA 201601-01

Vulnerability Insight:
Qualys have reported two issues in the roaming code included in the OpenSSH client, which provides undocumented, experimental support for resuming SSH connections. An OpenSSH client could be tricked into leaking parts of its memory to a malicious server. Furthermore, a buffer overflow can be exploited by a malicious server, but its exploitation requires non-default options and is mitigated due to another bug.

Solution:
Update the affected packages to the latest available version.

CVSS Score:
4.6
