Once again: both of these are attacks on the main sshd process by the
unprivileged child provess, so the attacker first has to gain control of
said child using some other vulnerability.  There is currently no known
way to exploit them.  The reason why an advisory was issued is that by
definition, the unprivileged child is assumed to be hostile.
