When sshd tries to authenticate a non-existing user, it will pickup a fixed fake password structure with a hash based on the Blowfishalgorithm. If real users passwords are hashed using SHA256/SHA512, thena remote attacker can take advantage of this flaw by sending largepasswords, receiving shorter response times from the server fornon-existing users. --------------------------------------------- https://www.debian.org/security/2016/dsa-3626
