CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------



PACKAGE   : openssh

SUMMARY   : X11 and ssh-agent forwarding problems

DATE      : 2000-12-06 15:19:00

ID        : CLA-2000:351

RELEVANT

RELEASES  : 6.0



- ----------------------------------------------------------------------



DESCRIPTION

 (This is a specific update for Conectiva Linux 6.0 which has already

 been applied to previous versions.)

 In versions prior to 2.3.0, if the openssh client receives a request

 for ssh-agent or X11 forwarding, it does not check if this feature

 has been negotiated during session setup and grants access.

 This could allow remote access to the client's display and ssh-agent

 service.





SOLUTION

 All openssh users should upgrade immediately.
