Hello,
Unfortunately, I do not have a solution to your problem. I just wanted
to pass along some information concerning PuTTY from a security news
letter to which I subscribe:
04.31.4 CVE: Not Available
Platform: Third Party Windows Apps
Title: PuTTY Remote Buffer Overflow
Description: PuTTY is a free Telnet and SSH client. It has been
reported that PuTTY is subject to a pre-authentication buffer overflow
that can allow malicious servers to execute code on a client machine
as it attempts to negotiate connection. PuTTY 0.54 and previous
versions are vulnerable.
