FKIE_CVE-2013-4852
Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2013-08-19 23:55 - Updated: 2026-06-16 23:58
Severity
Summary
Integer overflow in PuTTY 0.62 and earlier, WinSCP before 5.1.6, and other products that use PuTTY allows remote SSH servers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code in certain applications that use PuTTY via a negative size value in an RSA key signature during the SSH handshake, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
