Hi, From what I can tell from our data, the most common symmetric ciphers in SSH are proposed by client/servers to be used in CBC mode. With SSL/TLS and XMLEnc, this mode has had quite some publicity in the recent past.
I was wondering to which degree the attacks that were possible on SSL with AES/CBC might also be applicable to SSH? Quickly asking Google yielded things like http://modular.math.washington.edu/home/wstein/www/home/malb/papers/plaintext_recover_attacks_against_ssh.pdf http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/958563 I was wondering if there have recently been any more insights? Grateful for any pointers.
