Synopsis
========

A flaw has been discovered in OpenSSH which could allow a local
attacker to bypass security restrictions.

Background
==========

OpenSSH is a complete SSH protocol implementation that includes an SFTP
client and server support.

Affected packages
=================

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 net-misc/openssh < 4.7 >= 4.7

Description
===========

Jan Pechanec discovered that OpenSSH uses a trusted X11 cookie when it
cannot create an untrusted one.

Impact
======

An attacker could bypass the SSH client security policy and gain
privileges by causing an X client to be treated as trusted.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All OpenSSH users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-misc/openssh-4.7"
