SSH Secure Shell 3.0.0 does not ship with any
of the operating systems mentioned, nor does the
announcement specify that it does. However, if a
user has explicitly installed SSH Secure Shell 3.0.0
on any of the listed operating systems, they are
vulnerable to this potential exploit.


I don't want to drag this boring thread any longer, but in
your advisory, it stated that OpenBSD and NetBSD were
not vulnerable.  So...if I install SSH 3.0.0 on one of those
(even though the already come with openssh), ssh will not
be vulnerable to this bug?  Or will it?  I think that part
created a little confusion.


Cheers
