cygwin1.dll

[jim.a.davidson@bt.com]

Sirs,
We are proposing to use the Red Hat OpenSSH package on our NT/W2K servers
but some concerns
have been raised re. the Cygwin1.dll shared memory vulnerability.
As the only Cygwin application running on these machines will be OpenSSH I
am not sure how
significant a risk may exist.
Can you please explain how this vulnerabilty could be exploited so that we
can determine
what if any counter measures we could deploy.
Thanks.
