Subject: [SECURITY] [DSA 025-2] New sparc packages of OpenSSH
released
Debian Security Advisory DSA-025-2 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Martin Schulze

Package : openssh
Vulnerability : Wrong libSSL
Debian-specific: yes
A former security upload of OpenSSH was linked against the wrong
version of libssl (providing an API to SSL), that version was not
available on sparc. This ought to fix a former upload that lacked
support for PAM which lead into people not being able to log in
into their server. This was only a problem on the sparc
architecture.
We recommend you upgrade your ssh packages on sparc.
wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.
You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 alias potato

sparc architectures. This is only a (though second) recompile for
the sparc architecture and thus no new source and no other binary
packages are provided
