# CVE-2024-6387: openssh
## Title
CVE-2024-6387: regreSSHion: remote code execution (RCE) in OpenSSH server, exploitable at least on glibc-based Linux systems
## Summary
As [discovered by Qualys](https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2024/07/01/3) and
[summarized by OpenSSH upstream](https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2024/07/01/1):
A critical vulnerability in sshd(8) was present in Portable OpenSSH versions 8.5p1 [to] 9.7p1 (inclusive) that may allow arbitrary code execution with root privileges.
Successful exploitation has been demonstrated on 32-bit Linux/glibc systems with ASLR. Under lab conditions, the attack requires on average 6-8 hours of continuous connections up to the maximum the server will accept. Exploitation on 64-bit systems is believed to be possible but has not been demonstrated at this time. It's likely that these attacks will be improved upon.
Public disclosure date: July 1, 2024
## EL9
- Fixed in version: `8.7p1-38.el9_4.security.0.5` available July 1, 2024
## EL8
- Unaffected
## Mitigation
Set `LoginGraceTime 0` in `/etc/ssh/sshd_config` and do a `systemctl restart sshd`.
A drawback of this mitigation is that it will make the SSH server more susceptible to denial of service attacks.

## EL9
- Version `8.7p1-38.el9_4.security.0.4`
- Version `8.7p1-38.el9_4.security.0.5`
- Based on `8.7p1-38.el9`
### Changes summary
- Instead of linking against `libsystemd`, load it dynamically in a temporary child process to avoid polluting actual `sshd`'s address space with that library and its many dependencies (shortens `ldd sshd` output from 28 to 20 lines)
- Build without Kerberos support (further shortens `ldd sshd` from 20 to 13 lines)
- Fix CVE-2024-6387 regreSSHion
