CVE-2019-6111 is an insufficient filename-validation vulnerability in the legacy SCP protocol implementation used by OpenSSH 7.9. Because the server selects the objects returned to the client, a malicious SCP server or man-in-the-middle attacker can return names that do not correspond to the requested objects. The client prevents directory traversal but performs only cursory validation of returned object names, allowing unexpected files to be written in the local target directory. During recursive transfers, attacker-controlled subdirectory handling can reach files such as SSH authorization configuration.
