Lsh Security Vulnerabilities

CVE-2003-0826

lsh daemon (lshd) does not properly return from certain functions in (1) read_line.c, (2) channel_commands.c, or (3) client_keyexchange.c when long input is provided, which could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a heap-based buffer overflow attack.

CVE-2006-0353

unix_random.c in lshd for lsh 2.0.1 leaks file descriptors related to the randomness generator, which allows local users to cause a denial of service by truncating the seed file, which prevents the server from starting, or obtain sensitive seed information that could be used to crack keys.
