 As reported by Niels Möller, the author of lsh-utils, a user is able to
 access fd:s used by lsh.
 
 When logging in through lsh-server a user is able to tamper with
 /var/spool/yarrow-seed-file, which can be used to prevent the server
 from starting or allow the user guesses about the encryption used by
 lsh-server.
 
 Therefore its strongly suggested to apply the patch from Niels.

 Unstable will get a new version including the fix soon.

Please let us know which version in sid will fix the problem.

I've requested a CVE name and will provide it asap.

Joey

lsh-utilis 2.0.1cdbs-4 includes a dpatch file in debian/patches which  
fixes the problem.
