Doc Text:
A flaw was found in OpenSSH. When Generic Security Services Application Programming Interface (GSSAPI) authentication is enabled, the SSH daemon fails to properly discard credentials after a failed authentication attempt. If a user subsequently authenticates through another method, the leftover credentials can persist and become inappropriately accessible to that session. This issue allows an authenticated user to access lingering credentials, leading to information disclosure.
