GCVE-110-MAGEIA-2015-295

Advisory Published

Vulnetix · Advisory published July 28, 2015

The OpenSSH server, when keyboard-interactive challenge response authentication is enabled and PAM is being used (the default configuration in Mageia), can be tricked into allowing more password attempts than the MaxAuthTries setting would normally allow in one connection, which can aid an attacker in brute-force password guessing (CVE-2015-5600).
