Vulnerability Summary Aliases
VCID-5kyz-5rns-2qfy Matt Johnston Dropbear SSH server 0.47 and earlier, as used in embedded Linux devices and on general-purpose operating systems, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (connection slot exhaustion) via a large number of connection attempts that exceeds the MAX_UNAUTH_CLIENTS defined value of 30. CVE-2006-1206
VCID-6ucx-wdc2-tuad Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Dropbear, the worst of which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. CVE-2016-7406
VCID-8apc-5c8s-k3ar security update CVE-2017-9079
VCID-9pmf-w3x7-5ugr An issue was discovered in Dropbear through 2020.81. Due to a non-RFC-compliant check of the available authentication methods in the client-side SSH code, it is possible for an SSH server to change the login process in its favor. This attack can bypass additional security measures such as FIDO2 tokens or SSH-Askpass. Thus, it allows an attacker to abuse a forwarded agent for logging on to another server unnoticed. CVE-2021-36369
VCID-9vje-sxgj-9udj dbclient in Dropbear SSH before 2025.88 allows command injection via an untrusted hostname argument, because a shell is used. CVE-2025-47203
VCID-a1rw-pbvm-7kec The DSS verification code in Dropbear SSH Server before 0.43 frees uninitialized variables, which might allow remote attackers to gain access. CVE-2004-2486
VCID-a8c1-84ye-73en Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Dropbear, the worst of which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. CVE-2016-7408
VCID-adtn-2cnz-wfb9 The buf_decompress function in packet.c in Dropbear SSH Server before 2013.59 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a compressed packet that has a large size when it is decompressed. CVE-2013-4421
VCID-d17n-u3cw-cudj It was found that dropbear before version 2013.59 with GSSAPI leaks whether given username is valid or invalid. When an invalid username is given, the GSSAPI authentication failure was incorrectly counted towards the maximum allowed number of password attempts. CVE-2017-2659
VCID-d3s7-uqk1-47bq security update CVE-2017-9078
VCID-enpx-ej3b-n3gh A flaw was found in Dropbear. When running in multi-user mode and authenticating users, the dropbear ssh server does the socket forwardings requested by the remote client as root, only switching to the logged-in user upon spawning a shell or performing some operations like reading the user's files. With the recent ability of also using unix domain sockets as the forwarding destination any user able to log in via ssh can connect to any unix socket with the root's credentials, bypassing both file system restrictions and any SO_PEERCRED / SO_PASSCRED checks performed by the peer. CVE-2025-14282
VCID-fkyw-zr2t-y7dm The recv_msg_userauth_request function in svr-auth.c in Dropbear through 2018.76 is prone to a user enumeration vulnerability because username validity affects how fields in SSH_MSG_USERAUTH messages are handled, a similar issue to CVE-2018-15473 in an unrelated codebase. CVE-2018-15599
VCID-gdx4-w6cw-2kek scp.c in Dropbear before 2020.79 mishandles the filename of . or an empty filename, a related issue to CVE-2018-20685. CVE-2020-36254
VCID-guvt-ddvk-dbdk dbclient in Dropbear SSH client before 0.49 does not sufficiently warn the user when it detects a hostkey mismatch, which might allow remote attackers to conduct man-in-the-middle attacks. CVE-2007-1099
VCID-hmcm-aqkc-zfdm Dropbear 2011.54 through 2018.76 has an inconsistent failure delay that may lead to revealing valid usernames, a different issue than CVE-2018-15599. CVE-2019-12953
VCID-jd36-dxz7-dfdy Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Dropbear, the worst of which could lead to arbitrary code execution. CVE-2012-0920
VCID-jzn6-bzzf-nugp Improper Validation of Integrity Check Value The SSH transport protocol with certain OpenSSH extensions, found in OpenSSH before 9.6 and other products, allows remote attackers to bypass integrity checks such that some packets are omitted (from the extension negotiation message), and a client and server may consequently end up with a connection for which some security features have been downgraded or disabled, aka a Terrapin attack. This occurs because the SSH Binary Packet Protocol (BPP), implemented by these extensions, mishandles the handshake phase and mishandles use of sequence numbers. For example, there is an effective attack against SSH's use of ChaCha20-Poly1305 (and CBC with Encrypt-then-MAC). The bypass occurs in chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com and (if CBC is used) the -etm@openssh.com MAC algorithms. This also affects Maverick Synergy Java SSH API before 3.1.0-SNAPSHOT, Dropbear through 2022.83, Ssh before 5.1.1 in Erlang/OTP, PuTTY before 0.80, AsyncSSH before 2.14.2, golang.org/x/crypto before 0.17.0, libssh before 0.10.6, libssh2 through 1.11.0, Thorn Tech SFTP Gateway before 3.4.6, Tera Term before 5.1, Paramiko before 3.4.0, jsch before 0.2.15, SFTPGo before 2.5.6, Netgate pfSense Plus through 23.09.1, Netgate pfSense CE through 2.7.2, HPN-SSH through 18.2.0, ProFTPD before 1.3.8b (and before 1.3.9rc2), ORYX CycloneSSH before 2.3.4, NetSarang XShell 7 before Build 0144, CrushFTP before 10.6.0, ConnectBot SSH library before 2.2.22, Apache MINA sshd through 2.11.0, sshj through 0.37.0, TinySSH through 20230101, trilead-ssh2 6401, LANCOM LCOS and LANconfig, FileZilla before 3.66.4, Nova before 11.8, PKIX-SSH before 14.4, SecureCRT before 9.4.3, Transmit5 before 5.10.4, Win32-OpenSSH before 9.5.0.0p1-Beta, WinSCP before 6.2.2, Bitvise SSH Server before 9.32, Bitvise SSH Client before 9.33, KiTTY through 0.76.1.13, the net-ssh gem 7.2.0 for Ruby, the mscdex ssh2 module before 1.15.0 for Node.js, the thrussh library before 0.35.1 for Rust, and the Russh crate before 0.40.2 for Rust. CVE-2023-48795
GHSA-45x7-px36-x8w8
VCID-qftg-znh3-5kep A vulnerability has been found in Dropbear, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended shell-command restrictions. CVE-2016-3116

VCID-uz94-gzud-euhk A buffer overflow in Dropbear could allow authenticated users to execute arbitrary code as the root user. CVE-2005-4178
VCID-w5xg-8n7z-zqcs Dropbear SSH Server before 2013.59 generates error messages for a failed logon attempt with different time delays depending on whether the user account exists, which allows remote attackers to discover valid usernames. CVE-2013-4434
VCID-xqe7-wtdn-hugk Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Dropbear, the worst of which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. CVE-2016-7407
