Detail

OpenSSH portable 4.1 on SUSE Linux, and possibly other platforms and versions, and possibly under limited configurations, allows remote attackers to determine valid usernames via timing discrepancies in which responses take longer for valid usernames than invalid ones, as demonstrated by sshtime. NOTE: as of 20061014, it appears that this issue is dependent on the use of manually-set passwords that causes delays when processing /etc/shadow due to an increased number of rounds.

Id Description
32721 OpenSSH Username Password Complexity Account Enumeration

OpenSSH, when deployed under specific but not fully researched conditions, is prone to a remote information disclosure weakness. The issue likely occurs when manually set shadowed passwords are used, which causes OpenSSH to spend extra time during the authentication sequence. This timing discrepancy can be used by a remote attacker to possibly determine which accounts are valid.
