3. Description:
OpenSSH is an SSH protocol implementation supported by a number of Linux,
UNIX, and similar operating systems. It includes the core files necessary
for both the OpenSSH client and server.
Security Fix(es):
* A covert timing channel flaw was found in the way OpenSSH handled
authentication of non-existent users. A remote unauthenticated attacker
could possibly use this flaw to determine valid user names by measuring the
timing of server responses. (CVE-2016-6210)
4. Solution:
For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes
described in this advisory, refer to:
https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258
After installing this update, the OpenSSH server daemon (sshd) will be
restarted automatically.
5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):
