+ <title>SSH Communications Security's Secure Shell Server: SFTP privilege escalation</title>

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ The SSH Secure Shell Server from SSH Communications Security
+ (www.ssh.com) is a commercial SSH implementation available free for
+ non-commercial use.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ The SSH Secure Shell Server contains a format string vulnerability in
+ the SFTP code that handles file transfers (scp2 and sftp2). In some
+ situations, this code passes the accessed filename to the system log.
+ During this operation, an unspecified error could allow uncontrolled
+ stack access.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An authenticated system user may be able to exploit this vulnerability
+ to bypass command restrictions, or run commands as another user.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ This package is currently masked, there is no upgrade path for the
+ 3.2.x version, and a license must be purchased in order to update to a
+ non-vulnerable version. Because of this, we recommend unmerging this
+ package:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --ask --verbose --unmerge net-misc/ssh</code>
