Advisory Published
Vulnetix · Advisory published January 16, 2001
The secure-RPC feature of the SSH1 client in Solaris sometimes encrypts the SSH private key file with a weak passphrase, which can be determined by an attacker and used to recover the SSH private keys. Other versions of the SSH client running on non-Solaris platforms are not affected by this vulnerability.
