I appreciate the feedback, but as far as I can tell all this
information was actually present in the advisory:
Affects: FreeBSD 4.x, 4.2-STABLE prior to the correction date
Ports collection prior to the correction date.
Corrected: OpenSSH [FreeBSD 4.x base system]:
2000-12-05 (Vulnerability 1)
2001-02-11 (Vulnerability 2)
OpenSSH [ports]:
2001-02-09 (Vulnerability 1)
2001-02-11 (Vulnerability 2)
ssh [ports]:
2001-02-09 (Vulnerability 1)
2001-02-09 (Vulnerability 2)
=2E..
OpenSSH is installed if you chose to install the 'crypto' distribution
at install-time or when compiling from source, and is installed and
enabled by default as of FreeBSD 4.1.1-RELEASE. By default SSH1
protocol support is enabled.
=2E..
An SSH1 client/server (ssh) from ssh.com is included in the ports
collection. This software is not available free of charge for all
uses, and the FreeBSD Security Officer does not recommend its use.
=2E..
If SSH1 protocol support has been disabled in OpenSSH, it is not
vulnerable to these attacks. They do not affect implementations of
the SSH2 protocol, such as OpenSSH run in SSH2-only mode.
Versions of the OpenSSH port prior to openssh-2.2.0_2, and versions
of the ssh port prior to ssh-1.2.27_3 are vulnerable to these attacks.
