CVE-2006-4925  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 openssh to version 1:5.1p1-5 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openssh package and not the openssh package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

packet.c in ssh in OpenSSH allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) by sending an invalid protocol sequence with USERAUTH_SUCCESS before NEWKEYS, which causes newkeys[mode] to be NULL.
