9.1 CRITICAL

Remote unauthenticated signature-check bypass yields full account access (C:H/I:H); no availability impact; PR:N because the flaw defeats authentication itself, though the vulnerable async code path must be server-configured.

AnalysisAI

An authentication bypass in Apache MINA SSHD's sshd-core library (versions 2.0.0 through 2.19.0 and 3.0.0-M1 through 3.0.0-M5) allows remote, unauthenticated attackers to skip signature verification during public-key or hostbased SSH authentication, potentially granting an attacker a valid session. The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N (9.1 critical) reflects high confidentiality and integrity impact, but exploitation is gated by a non-default precondition: the server operator must have written explicit custom code enabling the library's 'asynchronous authentication' mechanism and applied it to public-key or hostbased authentication. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitable ONLY against an Apache MINA SSHD server (versions 2.0.0-2.19.0 or 3.0.0-M1 to 3.0.0-M5) whose operator has written explicit custom code enabling the 'asynchronous authentication' mechanism AND applies it to public-key or hostbased authentication. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N, 9.1 critical) describes a fully remote, network-facing, unauthenticated authentication bypass with high confidentiality and integrity impact - on paper a top-tier priority. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade to Apache MINA SSHD 2.20.0 (2.x line) or 3.0.0-M6 (3.0.0 milestone line), which correct the asynchronous-authentication logic error and refuse to combine asynchronous authentication with the public-key or hostbased schemes - in that case the SSH session is terminated and a log entry is written. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory every system and application that bundles Apache MINA SSHD sshd-core in the affected ranges (2.0.0 through 2.19.0, and 3.0.0-M1 through 3.0.0-M5) and determine whether any of them contains internally written custom code that enables the library's asynchronous authentication mechanism and applies it to public-key or hostbased authentication; deployments that use the library only with password or keyboard-interactive authentication, or that never enabled asynchronous authentication, are not exposed and should be documented as out of scope. …
