Description
The SSH transport protocol with certain OpenSSH extensions, found in OpenSSH before 9.6 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. The impact of this vulnerability on HPE Aruba Networking Access Points has not been confirmed, but the version of OpenSSH in InstantOS and ArubaOS 10.x software has been upgraded for mitigation.
