| CVE | Priority | Title | CVSS | EPSS | Exploitation |
|---|---|---|---:|---:|---|
| [CVE-2026-60000](https://patchblox.com/security/data/cve/CVE-2026-60000.md) | High | sshd in OpenSSH before 10.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption from excessive authentication attempts) because MaxAuthTries was mishandled for GSSAPIAuthentication. | 7.5 | 0.0062 |  |
| [CVE-2026-60002](https://patchblox.com/security/data/cve/CVE-2026-60002.md) | High | ssh in OpenSSH before 10.4 can have a use-after-free when a server changes its host key during a key re-exchange. (This outcome occurs only on the client side.) | 9.4 | 0.0030 |  |
| [CVE-2026-59996](https://patchblox.com/security/data/cve/CVE-2026-59996.md) | High | scp in OpenSSH before 10.4 may place a file in the parent directory of an intended directory when the copy occurs between two remote destinations. | 7.7 | 0.0025 |  |
| [CVE-2026-59995](https://patchblox.com/security/data/cve/CVE-2026-59995.md) | High | sftp in OpenSSH before 10.4 does not properly constrain the location of downloaded files when "sftp server:/path ." is used with an attacker-controlled server. | 7.5 | 0.0025 |  |
| [CVE-2026-59999](https://patchblox.com/security/data/cve/CVE-2026-59999.md) | High | In sshd in OpenSSH before 10.4, DisableForwarding=yes was supposed to take precedence over PermitTunnel=yes, but did not. | 7.5 | 0.0016 |  |
| [CVE-2026-60001](https://patchblox.com/security/data/cve/CVE-2026-60001.md) | Routine | sshd in OpenSSH before 10.4 does not always honor the minimum authentication delay. | 6.5 | 0.0029 |  |
| [CVE-2026-59998](https://patchblox.com/security/data/cve/CVE-2026-59998.md) | Routine | sshd in OpenSSH before 10.4 has an undocumented security-relevant behavior: GSSAPIStrictAcceptorCheck has no value if the server is in Windows Active Directory. | 6.5 | 0.0018 |  |
| [CVE-2026-59997](https://patchblox.com/security/data/cve/CVE-2026-59997.md) | Routine | internal-sftp in sshd in OpenSSH before 10.4 recognizes only the first 9 command-line arguments, which can be important if a later command-line argument would have helped to ensure the intended security properties of an SFTP connection. | 6.5 | 0.0018 |  |
