I. DESCRIPTION

CVE-2014-2532
OpenSSH could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, 
caused by the inclusion of wildcard characters in the AcceptEnv lines of the sshd_config 
configuration file within the sshd program.By using a substring before a wildcard character, 
an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass intended environment restrictions.
