[Security Issue] hpn-ssh seems be to vulnerable to a critical threat CVE-2024-6387 #87

Closed IceCodeNew closed 3 months ago

IceCodeNew commented 3 months ago

The latest release of the hpn-ssh was based on OpenSSH 9.7, which is vulnerable to the regression of CVE-2006-5051, according to the report

Thought it is worth raising concern about that problem, I wish I did not intervene in the normal process of development.

We've just been made aware of this but we already had started work on porting to 9.8. I hope to have a release ready by the end of the day but that may slip until tomorrow.

Glad to hear about it. I should not bother to ask ;=) Appreciate the quick response 👍👍👍

We've had to change plans and we have backported the fix from 9.8 to the 9.7 code base. This is available in master with the tag hpn-18.4.2.

The 9.8 port is taking longer than expected - especially with the packages. We thought this was the best move forward at this time. We will get to 9.8 as soon as we can but the US holiday will delay things.

The debian packages seems missed the release. Would you mind to take a look at it?

rapier1 commented 3 months ago

I didn't have a chance to get to those yesterday. I will be getting those in place in about an hour. My apologies for the delay.

Debian packages should now be available from https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/rapier1

Functional Ubuntu packages should also be available from the launchpad PPA.
