Information disclosure vulnerability in PuTTY by reading the memory| ID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:33712 | Date: (C)2016-03-25 (M)2023-03-24 |
| Class: VULNERABILITY | Family: windows |
The host is installed with PuTTY 0.51 through 0.63 and is prone to an information disclosure vulnerability. The flaw is present in the (1) ssh2_load_userkey and (2) ssh2_save_userkey functions, which do not properly wipe SSH-2 private keys from memory. Successful exploitation allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading the memory.
