Package : dropbear
Vulnerability : buffer overflow
Problem type : local (remote)

A buffer overflow has been discovered in dropbear, a lightweight SSH2
server and client, that may allow authenticated users to execute
arbitrary code as the server user (usually root).
The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain dropbear packages.
