Stack-based buffer overflow in Pragma FortressSSH 4.0.7.20 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via long SSH_MSG_KEXINIT messages, which may cause an overflow when being logged.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.18%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
