Interesting.

I could scan the source, but perhaps you already have and can answer
the following questions:

1. Could the bug be exploited by someone who had not authenticated
   with the server?

2. Can it be worked around by changing the configuration until one
   has time to patch? (You mention that it's an SSH2 exploit; perhaps
   one can disable SSH2 and use SSH1 in the interim?)
