CVE-2004-1161
rssh 2.2.2 and earlier does not properly restrict programs that can be run, which could allow remote authenticated users to bypass intended access restrictions and execute arbitrary programs via (1) rdist -P, (2) rsync, or (3) scp -S.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (7.33%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
