CVE-2002-1360 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Debian security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Debian:10.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openssh package and not the openssh package as distributed by Debian.
Multiple SSH2 servers and clients do not properly handle strings with null characters in them when the string length is specified by a length field, which could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code due to interactions with the use of null-terminated strings as implemented using languages such as C, as demonstrated by the SSHredder SSH protocol test suite.
