CVE-2021-36367

Published Jul 9, 2021 CVSS 3.1 · 8.1 High EPSS 1.1% KEV · Not listed
Description
PuTTY through 0.75 proceeds with establishing an SSH session even if it has never sent a substantive authentication response. This makes it easier for an attacker-controlled SSH server to present a later spoofed authentication prompt (that the attacker can use to capture credential data, and use that data for purposes that are undesired by the client user).
