<p>A remote attacker could send a specially crafted request to trigger a
use-after-free condition, possibly resulting in arbitrary code execution
or a Denial of Service condition. Additionally, the bundled version of
libtommath has an error in its prime number generation, which could
result in the generation of weak keys.

<workaround>
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>All Dropbear users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
