Someone forwarded me this: (he tought is was funny)

A security problem in SSH that OpenSSH didn't have. In de Raadt's typical
straightforward fashion, he says: "A lot of their customers were using
SSH.com software on Solaris boxes. On Solaris boxes, this was a sure

which should not have slipped through internal beta testing."
