This bug was fixed in the package openssh - 1:5.3p1-3ubuntu2 --------------- openssh (1:5.3p1-3ubuntu2) lucid; urgency=low
* Always set child processes' OOM adjustment to 0, since Upstart will have set sshd's OOM adjustment on startup and so simply restoring the startup value won't work (LP: #293000). Thanks to Karsten Suehring for analysis. * Limit automatic respawning to 10 times in 5 seconds (thanks to Fumihito YOSHIDA for the suggestion; LP: #533352). -- Colin Watson <cjwat...@ubuntu.com> Sat, 06 Mar 2010 22:00:19 +0000 ** Changed in: openssh (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- hardy: openssh-server oom_adj can lead to denial of service https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/293000 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
