<background>
<p>OpenSSH is a complete SSH protocol implementation that includes SFTP
client and server support.
</p>
</background>
<description>
<p>OpenSSH, when built with “xmss” USE flag enabled, has a
pre-authentication integer overflow if a client or server is configured
to use a crafted XMSS key.
</p>
<p>NOTE: This USE flag is disabled by default!</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>A remote attacker could connect to a vulnerable OpenSSH server using a
special crafted XMSS key possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary
code with the privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>Disable XMSS key type.</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>All OpenSSH users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
"&gt;=net-misc/openssh/openssh-8.0_p1-r4"
</code>
