Gentoo Linux Security Advisory
Title: rssh: Multiple vulnerabilities (GLSA 202007-29)
Severity: normal
Exploitable: remote
Date: 2020-07-27
Bug(s): #699842
ID: 202007-29
Synopsis
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in rssh, the worst of
which could result in the arbitrary execution of code.
Background
rssh is a restricted shell, allowing only a few commands like scp or
sftp. It is often used as a complement to OpenSSH to provide limited
access to users.
Affected Packages
Package: app-shells/rssh
Vulnerable: <= 2.3.4_p3
Architectures: All supported architectures
Description
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in rssh. Please review the
CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
Impact
Please review the referenced CVE identifiers for details.
Workaround
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
Gentoo has discontinued support for rssh. We recommend that users
unmerge rssh:
| Code: | # emerge --unmerge "app-shells/rssh"
|
NOTE: The Gentoo developer(s) maintaining rssh have discontinued support
at this time. It may be possible that a new Gentoo developer will update
rssh at a later date. OpenSSH (net-misc/openssh) may be able to provide
similar functionality using its extensive configuration.
