-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA-2879-1 security@debian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Raphael Geissert March 13, 2014 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : libssh CVE ID : CVE-2014-0017 It was discovered that libssh, a tiny C SSH library, did not reset the state of the PRNG after accepting a connection. A server mode application that forks itself to handle incoming connections could see its children sharing the same PRNG state, resulting in a cryptographic weakness and possibly the recovery of the private key. For the oldstable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 0.4.5-3+squeeze2. For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 0.5.4-1+deb7u1. For the testing distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in version 0.5.4-3. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 0.5.4-3. We recommend that you upgrade your libssh packages.
