Technical Description
Two vulnerabilities were identified in OpenSSH, which could be exploited by attackers to disclose sensitive information or bypass the security restrictions.
The first issue is due to an error introduced in OpenSSH 4.0, which could cause "GatewayPorts" to be incorrectly activated for dynamic port forwarding when no listen address is explicitly specified.
The second issue occurs when a user has GSSAPI authentication configured and "GSSAPIDelegateCredentials" is enabled, which could cause Kerberos credentials to be exposed to remote hosts.
