CVE-2008-2285

Publication date 18 May 2008

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

The ssh-vulnkey tool on Ubuntu Linux 7.04, 7.10, and 8.04 LTS does not recognize authorized_keys lines that contain options, which makes it easier for remote attackers to exploit CVE-2008-0166 by guessing a key that was not identified by this tool.
