Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDKSA-2006:179
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________

Package : openssh
Date : October 3, 2006
Affected: 2006.0, 2007.0, Corporate 3.0, Corporate 4.0,
Multi Network Firewall 2.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

Tavis Ormandy of the Google Security Team discovered a Denial of
Service vulnerability in the SSH protocol version 1 CRC compensation
attack detector. This could allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to
trigger excessive CPU utilization by sending a specially crafted SSH
message, which would then deny ssh services to other users or processes
(CVE-2006-4924, CVE-2006-4925). Please note that Mandriva ships with
only SSH protocol version 2 enabled by default.

Next, an unsafe signal handler was found by Mark Dowd. This signal
handler was vulnerable to a race condition that could be exploited to
perform a pre-authentication DoS, and theoretically a
pre-authentication remote code execution in the case where some
authentication methods like GSSAPI are enabled (CVE-2006-5051).

Updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.
