| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in OpenSSH, a widely used tool for secure remote access. When a user attempts to copy files between two different remote systems using the `scp` command, the file might be incorrectly placed in a directory above the intended destination. This unintended file placement could lead to data integrity issues or, in some cases, unauthorized access to sensitive information if files are stored in an exposed location.
