Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to User Impersonation due to a misconfiguration in the handling of SSH remote login status when systemd socket activation is used for openssh-server. An attacker can gain unauthorized remote SSH access to the local machine by exploiting this misconfiguration. This is only exploitable if the system is configured to use systemd socket activation for openssh-server.
