Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
OpenSSH (affected versions not specified)
Description
The issue is related to the OpenSSH cryptographic protection tool, where the application fails to properly impose security restrictions when the LogVerbose keyword parameter is enabled with a set of parameters that activate logging for the isolated sshd process with low privileges. This could allow a remote attacker, who can exploit the low-privilege process, to bypass OpenSSH's forwarding and attack high-privilege processes.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
