Pragma Systems FortressSSH Remote Denial-of-Service Vulnerability
Pragma Systems FortressSSH is prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability because it fails to adequately handle certain exceptions when processing overly long user-supplied input. Attackers can exploit this issue to exhaust the maximum number of connections alotted for servers. Successful attacks will deny access to legitimate users.
Mitigation:
Administrators are advised to upgrade to the latest version of Pragma Systems FortressSSH.
