Summary

A flaw was found in libssh. When ProxyCommand is used, an unchecked fork() failure can be stored as process ID -1; during cleanup, signals may then be sent across the caller's accessible process tree, leading to local denial of service.

Add your gear to cvedb and we'll alert you only when a vendor you run ships something exploited.
