openssh, openssh-gssapi vulnerabilities

Published Oct 19, 2026 · Updated Oct 19, 2026

Summary

It was discovered that OpenSSH's sftp client incorrectly handled paths
returned by the server during a recursive copy operation. A remote attacker
controlling the server could possibly use this issue to write files to
unintended locations. (CVE-2026-106552)

It was discovered that OpenSSH's sshd server incorrectly handled
GSSAPIAuthentication state across authentication attempts. An attacker
could possibly use this issue to obtain credentials from a previous failed
authentication attempt. (CVE-2026-106553, CVE-2026-106555)

It was discovered that OpenSSH incorrectly used an LZ77 dictionary coder
during compression. An attacker could possibly use this issue to obtain
sensitive information. (CVE-2026-106582)

It was discovered that OpenSSH's ssh client incorrectly allowed special
characters in command-line usernames. An attacker could possibly use this
issue to inject arbitrary commands via specially crafted usernames.
(CVE-2026-106583)

It was discovered that OpenSSH's ssh-keygen incorrectly handled Daylight
Saving Time when converting dates. An attacker could possibly use this
issue to cause certificates to have incorrect expiration times.
(CVE-2026-106584)

It was discovered that OpenSSH did not check whether the maximum packet
length was exceeded during decompression. A remote attacker could possibly
use this issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2026-106585)

It was discovered that OpenSSH's sshd server incorrectly applied the
restrict keyword from authorized_keys to tunnel forwarding requests. A
local attacker with an authorized key could possibly use this issue to
bypass intended tunnel forwarding restrictions. (CVE-2026-106586)

It was discovered that OpenSSH's sshd server incorrectly handled certain
configuration options that accept a "none" value. An attacker could
possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSH to behave unexpectedly.
(CVE-2026-106587)
