Package name openssh Date November 13th, 2000 Advisory ID MDKSA-2000:068 Affected versions 7.0, 7.1, 7.2 Synopsis Updated openssh packages fix improper checking of X11 forwarding permissions

Problem Description

A vulnerability exists with all versions of OpenSSH prior to 2.3.0 with
regards to the X11 forwarding and ssh-agent. If agent or X11
forwarding is disabled in the ssh client configuration, the client does
not request these features during session setup. However, when the ssh
client receives an actual request asking for access to the ssh-agent,
the client fails to check whether this feature has been negotiated
during session setup. The client does not check whether the request is
in compliance with the client configuration and grants access to the
ssh-agent. A similar problem exists in the X11 forwarding
implementation.
