The SSH server (IPSSH) implementation in VxWorks contains a denial-of-service (DoS) vulnerability due to an issue in the processing authentication requests.
Recieiving a specially crafted packet for a public key authentication request may cause the server to hang and SSH access to be unavailable until the next reboot. In addition, arbitrary code may be executed on the server.
