CVE-2004-2069 Information

Description

sshd.c in OpenSSH 3.6.1p2 and 3.7.1p2 and possibly other versions when using privilege separation does not properly signal the non-privileged process when a session has been terminated after exceeding the LoginGraceTime setting which leaves the connection open and allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (connection consumption).
