Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2013-104

Posted Apr 11, 2013

Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2013-104 - Mosh versions 1.2 and earlier allow an application to cause the mosh-server to consume large amounts of CPU time with a short ANSI escape sequence. In addition, a malicious mosh-server can cause the mosh-client to consume large amounts of CPU time with a short ANSI escape sequence. This arises because there was no limit on the value of the repeat parameter in some ANSI escape sequences, so even large and nonsensical values would be interpreted by Mosh's terminal emulator.
