The hash_buffer function in schnorr.c in OpenSSH through 6.4, when Makefile.inc is modified to enable the J-PAKE protocol, does not initialize certain data structures, which might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or have unspecified other impact via vectors that trigger an error condition.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2014-1692 affects OpenSSH only in a narrow case: builds through 6.4 where Makefile.inc was changed to enable J-PAKE. The flaw can corrupt memory during an error condition, potentially causing SSH service disruption or other unspecified impact. Standard builds without J-PAKE enabled are less likely to be exposed. Exposure is most likely in legacy OpenSSH through 6.4 built from source or vendor packages with J-PAKE explicitly enabled. Environments using default builds, newer OpenSSH, or no J-PAKE support are less likely to be affected, but should verify rather than assume. Treat this as a targeted legacy exposure issue, not a broad emergency. Prioritize verification on externally reachable SSH infrastructure and custom OpenSSH builds. If J-PAKE was enabled, patch or disable it promptly because SSH availability and administrative access are business-critical. Mitigation focus: Identify OpenSSH versions and whether J-PAKE was enabled at build time.; Apply vendor OpenSSH or OS updates that include the referenced schnorr.c correction.; Disable or remove J-PAKE support if it is not explicitly required..
