[Bug 293000] Re: hardy: openssh-server oom_adj can lead to denial of service

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package openssh - 1:5.3p1-3ubuntu2

---------------
openssh (1:5.3p1-3ubuntu2) lucid; urgency=low

  * Always set child processes' OOM adjustment to 0, since Upstart will have
    set sshd's OOM adjustment on startup and so simply restoring the startup
    value won't work (LP: #293000).  Thanks to Karsten Suehring for
    analysis.
  * Limit automatic respawning to 10 times in 5 seconds (thanks to Fumihito
    YOSHIDA for the suggestion; LP: #533352).

       Status: Confirmed => Fix Released
