Description:
Ulrich Drepper discovered [0] a weakness in OpenSSH [1] version 4.2p1
and earlier, caused due to the insecure use of the system(3) function
in scp(1) when performing copy operations using filenames that are
supplied by the user from the command line. This can be exploited to
execute shell commands with privileges of the user running scp(1). The
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id
CVE-2006-0225 [2] to the problem.
