unspawn writes: Impact 
HIGH: Existing users will gain root privileges. 
 
Synopsis 
A bug exists in the channel code of OpenSSH versions 2.0 - 3.0.2 
Users with an existing user account can abuse this bug to 
gain root privileges. Exploitability without an existing 
user account has not been proven but is not considered 
impossible. A malicious ssh server could also use this bug 
to exploit a connecting vulnerable client.
