description
OpenSSH sshd versions before 10.6p2 are affected on Linux hosts that use musl libc without PAM. On susceptible account configurations, a remote attacker may authenticate through password login without providing the account's correct password.
mitigation
Upgrade OpenSSH to version 10.6p2 or later. Prioritize musl-based Linux hosts without PAM; if an upgrade must wait, disable password authentication or enable PAM where feasible.
fixed in 10.6p2
outcome
Contextual, not validated: no deterministic check could cover this one, and no technique passed our review.
