CVE-2026-93994
waiting for further signalsZero needs more public information before it can validate it.GHSA-qc4p-9828-mv83 ↗EUVD-2026-89758 ↗
description
Affected sshd-core releases do not distinguish repeated keys during multi-key SSH authentication. An attacker with one authorized key may satisfy a policy intended to require two separate keys when that policy is enabled on the server.
mitigation
Upgrade org.apache.sshd:sshd-core to 2.20.0 or 3.0.0-M6, as appropriate for the release line. Until upgraded, do not rely on repeated public-key factors as independent authentication controls.
fixed in 2.20.0, 3.0.0-M6
outcome
Contextual: an exploit technique exists, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
source signals
Public signals that triggered or updated the pipeline. These are inputs for the deltas above.
