Ubuntu has released updated packages to correct two vulnerabilities identified in OpenSSH. 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. For additional information, see : VUPEN/ADV-2005-1624

Affected Products

Ubuntu 4.10
Ubuntu 5.04

Solution

Upgrade the affected package to version 1:3.8.1p1-11ubuntu3.2 (for Ubuntu 4.10), or 1:3.9p1-1ubuntu2.1 (for Ubuntu 5.04).
