CVE-2020-14145 (GCVE-0-2020-14145)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2020-06-29 17:33 – Updated: 2025-12-18 14:41
VLAI
Summary
The client side in OpenSSH 5.7 through 8.4 has an Observable Discrepancy leading to an information leak in the algorithm negotiation. This allows man-in-the-middle attackers to target initial connection attempts (where no host key for the server has been cached by the client). NOTE: some reports state that 8.5 and 8.6 are also affected.
