Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.10%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
The Okta Privileged Access client does not reject a leading hyphen in the username portion of an SSH target. As a result, the value may be interpreted as a command-line option by the underlying SSH process.
