Daniel Hoffman discovered that Paramiko incorrectly handled
authentication when being used as a server. A remote attacker could
use this issue to bypass authentication without any credentials.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding
description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable
has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
without introducing additional issues."
