Ben Harris reports:

+
Versions of PuTTY and pterm between 0.54 and 0.65 inclusive have a + potentially memory-corrupting integer overflow in the handling of + the ECH (erase characters) control sequence in the terminal + emulator.
+
To exploit a vulnerability in the terminal emulator, an attacker + must be able to insert a carefully crafted escape sequence into the + terminal stream. For a PuTTY SSH session, this must be before + encryption, so the attacker likely needs access to the server you're + connecting to. For instance, an attacker on a multi-user machine + that you connect to could trick you into running cat on a file they + control containing a malicious escape sequence. (Unix write(1) is + not a vector for this, if implemented correctly.)
+
Only PuTTY, PuTTYtel, and pterm are affected; other PuTTY tools do + not include the terminal emulator, so cannot be exploited this + way.
