According to its banner, the version of LSH (a free replacement for SSH) is a version prior to 1.4.3 / 1.5.3. It is, therefore, affected by a buffer overflow vulnerability due to improper handling of user input to the ‘read_line.c’, ‘channel_commands.c’, and ‘client_keyexchange.c’ source files that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service.
