DescriptionNVD

In OpenSSH before 10.3, a file downloaded by scp may be installed setuid or setgid, an outcome contrary to some users' expectations, if the download is performed as root with -O (legacy scp protocol) and without -p (preserve mode).

AnalysisAI

File permission escalation in OpenSSH legacy scp allows remote attackers to install setuid/setgid binaries when downloading files as root. OpenSSH versions before 10.3 are affected when using legacy scp protocol (-O flag) without -p (preserve mode). …

Sign in for full analysis, threat intelligence, and remediation guidance.

RemediationAI

Within 24 hours: identify all systems running OpenSSH versions prior to 10.3p1 using vulnerability scanning or package inventory tools; prioritize systems where legacy scp (-O flag) is enabled or root file transfers occur. Within 7 days: upgrade affected OpenSSH installations to version 10.3p1 or later on all identified systems; test upgrades in non-production environments first. …
