Debian Security Advisory 5724-1

Debian Security Advisory 5724-1
Posted Jul 1, 2024
Authored by Debian | Site debian.org

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5724-1 - The Qualys Threat Research Unit (TRU) discovered that OpenSSH, an implementation of the SSH protocol suite, is prone to a signal handler race condition. If a client does not authenticate within LoginGraceTime seconds (120 by default), then sshd's SIGALRM handler is called asynchronously and calls various functions that are not async-signal-safe. A remote unauthenticated attacker can take advantage of this flaw to execute arbitrary code with root privileges. This flaw affects sshd in its default configuration.

Package : openssh
CVE ID : CVE-2024-6387

The Qualys Threat Research Unit (TRU) discovered that OpenSSH, an
implementation of the SSH protocol suite, is prone to a signal handler
race condition. If a client does not authenticate within LoginGraceTime
seconds (120 by default), then sshd's SIGALRM handler is called
asynchronously and calls various functions that are not
async-signal-safe. A remote unauthenticated attacker can take advantage
of this flaw to execute arbitrary code with root privileges. This flaw
affects sshd in its default configuration.

Details can be found in the Qualys advisory at
https://www.qualys.com/2024/07/01/cve-2024-6387/regresshion.txt

For the stable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed in
version 1:9.2p1-2+deb12u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your openssh packages.

For the detailed security status of openssh please refer to its security
tracker page at:
