Checks for format string vulnerability in SSH Tectia Server SFTP subsystem Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : The remote SSH server may be affected by a format string vulnerability. Description : The remote host is running SSH Tectia Server, a commercial SSH server. According to its banner, the installed version of this software contains a format string vulnerability in its sftp subsystem. A remote, authenticated attacker may be able to execute arbitrary code on the affected host subject to his rights or crash the server itself. See also : http://www.ssh.com/company/newsroom/article/715/ Solution : As a temporary solution, disable the sftp subsystem as described in the vendor advisory above.
