Package: openssh-server
Severity: normal


As described in bug #365541, SFTP-server will happily keep reading
input until it runs out of buffer space, instead of throtling
reads. This causes for example dds into a sshfs-mounted directory to
fail in some case.

I have submitted a patch to the openssh project, at http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1286 .

Regards, Thue

Thanks for sending your patch upstream. I see that this was applied in
OpenSSH 4.7p1 but I forgot to close this bug (only the duplicate
#365541), so I'm closing it now.

     [sftp-server.c]
     bz#1286 stop reading and processing commands when input or output buffer
     is nearly full, otherwise sftp-server would happily try to grow the
     input/output buffers past the maximum supported by the buffer API and
     promptly fatal()
     based on patch from Thue Janus Kristensen; feedback & ok dtucker@
