Goldstein Lyor updated SSHD-412:
--------------------------------
Description: If a zero-length file is sent/received via SCP then we run the
risk of using a zero-length copy buffer size - in which case, the copy loop may
run forever. This can also happen if using SCP to copy special files - e.g.,
_/proc/mounts_, _/dev/xxx_ which seemingly have zero size, but if opened and
read do have content. (was: If a zero-length file is sent/received via SCP

the copy loop may run forever. This can also happen if using SCP to copy
special files - e.g., _/proc/mounts_, _/dev/xxx_ which seemingly have zero
