DSA-119-1 ssh Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Joost Pol reports that OpenSSH versions 2.0 through 3.0.2 have an off-by-one bug in the channel allocation code. This vulnerability can be exploited by authenticated users to gain root privilege or by a malicious server exploiting a client with this bug. Since Debian 2.2 (potato) shipped with OpenSSH (the "ssh" package) version 1.2.3, it is not vulnerable to this exploit. No fix is required for Debian 2.2 (potato). The Debian unstable and testing archives do include a more recent OpenSSH (ssh) package. If you are running these pre-release distributions you should ensure that you are running version 3.0.2p1-8, a patched version which was added to the unstable archive today, or a later version.
