Description Mark J. Cox 2006-09-27 22:44:31 UTC 
OpenSSH 4.4 was released and mentions:

        * On portable OpenSSH, fix a GSSAPI authentication abort that
        could be used to determine the validity of usernames on some
        platforms.

This could only affect RHEL4 as previous RHEL did not support GSSAPI

(We currently don't know if this would affect Linux)
Comment 1 Miloslav Trmač 2007-03-30 19:13:21 UTC 
openssh-3.9p1 is not vulnerable to this abort - but see #234643.
Comment 2 Josh Bressers 2007-03-30 19:26:38 UTC 
This flaw does affect RHEL5 is seems.  I'm reopening this bug against RHEL5.
