According to its self-reported banner, the version of Dropbear SSH running on this port is earlier than 2013.59. As such, it is potentially affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  • A denial of service vulnerability caused by the way the ‘buf_decompress()’ function handles compressed files.
    (CVE-2013-4421)

  • User-enumeration is possible due to a timing error when authenticating users. (CVE-2013-4434)
