CVE-2008-2285 low priority: Ubuntu including 1 source packages (openssh), 5 status rows across 5 suites (dapper, feisty, gutsy, hardy, upstream): released 4, not-affected 1.

Description:

The ssh-vulnkey tool on Ubuntu Linux 7.04, 7.10, and 8.04 LTS does not recognize authorized_keys lines that contain options, which makes it easier for remote attackers to exploit CVE-2008-0166 by guessing a key that was not identified by this tool.
