CVE-2025-61984
lowpriority · track · 10EPSS 0.005 · 40 %ileexploit · PoCDEEUFRRUUSEPSS · scored 2026-10-27
ssh in OpenSSH before 10.1 allows control characters in usernames that originate from certain possibly untrusted sources, potentially leading to code execution when a ProxyCommand is used. The untrusted sources are the command line and %-sequence expansion of a configuration file. (A configuration file that provides a complete literal username is not categorized as an untrusted source.)
