    ## Summary Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling vulnerability in Erlang OTP ssh (ssh\_sftp modules) allows Excessive Allocation, Flooding. This vulnerability is associated with program files lib/ssh/src/ssh\_sftpd.erl. This issue affects OTP from OTP 17.0 before OTP 28.0.3, OTP 27.3.4.3 and OTP 26.2.5.15, corresponding to ssh from 3.0.1 before 5.3.3, 5.2.11.3 and 5.1.4.12. ## Workarounds \* disabling SFTP \* limiting number of max\_sessions allowed for sshd, so exploiting becomes more complicated ## Configurations The SFTP subsystem must be enabled on the SSH server and the SSH port must be reachable by the attacker. SFTP is enabled by default unless explicitly disabled by setting {subsystems, \[\]} in the SSH daemon configuration.
